Seems like some nice highlights there. I think the full 3.1 installation and roms is a very nice touch

Funny how when MOS or AROS comes out with an update you can be certain that an OS4 update will be released within a few days.

Beats me. Ask the conspiracy expert. LMAO!

Anyway, I wanted this update out back in May or June but such is life in the software world. The delays enabled us to include some important fixes (like Warp3D drivers) so it all seemed to work out in the end.

I wish I could afford one so I could have a fast next Gen Amiga with proper Midi support, not to mention the ability to run OctaMeD SS.

I still mostly use my A1200 for that (using 3.9 and 4.1). However, OMSS on the A1 with the Maestrix is pretty sweet.

It doesn't matter what other software I try, I somehow always come back to OctaMED.

With better 3.1 integration, its beginning to look more tempting.
