Default Amiwest News

The news so far, mainly os4 related, but still

Warp3d support is coming on the new Radeon gfx cards.before the years out (they hope) for os4 owner who get the drivers
http://www.a-eon.com/?news=20-10-2012

Libre Office port has begun for os4, lets hope they can pull it off
http://www.a-eon.com/?news=21-10-2012

Aros is being ported to the Sam 460 boards
http://www.acube-systems.biz/index.php?page=news

Ps: surprised no one else has posted this on here or seems to be that interest in Amiwest, so how come amiga.org users? I know many of you are on other forums so I can kind of understand why discust topics on mulitable forums but still just found it a little odd.

actually so far im informed aros on sam series is only factual news. i guess it must have been demoed, along aros68k and the rest. both other are solely announcements as usual. funny that on amiwest as soon as it is alowed in aros steals the show completely.

Hope AROS for the 460 works better than the 440 version. From start to finish that has been completely nonfunctional for me, cannot even install it.

Actually, while it might appear that "AROS stole the show",this has to be the least important announcement of those three. I mean, seriously, are you going to buy an overpriced Acube board to run AROS at 1/3 the speed you could run it on much cheaper X86 hardware?

Its sillly.

Now Warp3D support for Radeon HD cards? That's cool. Thanks Trevor.

I guess it depends on what apps that version of AROS can run.

No one in their right mind would buy a SAM to run AROS on, but it's an added perk. Unfortunately, ever since the first release of AROS for the 440ep to just last week when I tried it last I can't even get the OS to load from the CD to even the installer mode. :/

Maybe people here aren't as gullible as they are on other forums.
