AmigaOS 4.1 FE Classic arrived

Well I received my AmigaOS 4.1 FE Classic from Vesalia today, still waiting on my Pegasos version from Amigakit.

Pictures attached :-)

Going to order the Pegasos version from Vesalia as they have it in stock and pass on the copy from Amigakit to someone else when it finally turns up.

How does it work under WinUAE? Any drawbacks or bugs found? Speed? Network?

At first things were kind of slow and laggy, then I stumbled across on another forum by Toni who was suggesting to use the SCSI accelerator option and wow what a difference, boots almost like a real machine.

Becomes are very useable machine, might sell the Peg2 after all :-)

Fast = Yes
Network = Yes

So ignore all the how tos/guides that suggest using IDE as this is really really slow and painful, follow them but choose SCSI accelerator instead of IDE.

Didn't order classic through Amigakit but through Vesalia.

Thanks for the tip. BTW. is there any 3D gfx card supported in WinUAE to get 3D games or compositing engine to work?

Amigakit were very quick in their dispatch. I had my copy within 36 hours of them getting stock. You need to look at Hyperion to see where Amigakit hit delays.

Yep. Was dispatched within 8 hours of me placing the order through Vesalia. They did have stock a few days before Amigakit though.

Would depend on where Hyperion are based or shipping from as to when it arrives at the dealer. So I would assume Acube and Vesalia to be right next door to them as they had stock almost straight away.

I think I know what the problem is, it's the British customs. I've had some sound equipment repaired by a specialist in the UK and customs retained it for more than a month!! :( Mind you, I'm in Portugal so they started doing this even for packages from within the EU... Even more amazing, when the item was returned they retained it for more than a month again. And you never know what X-Ray scanning or whatever they're gonna use, if you have media that can get screwed by that you're on your own..
This wasn't the only experience like this I've had with them so not buying from UK again, sorry, nothing personal (quite the other way actually, quite like the British...) but they've screwed it for me.. Search around google and you'll find thousands of stories like this, apparently it was because of terrorism or something, but maybe also to control illegal trading.

So if you want it fast, just order within the EU and outside the UK.

Happy new year to all by the way....;)

Jose

Last post for now. Can't really see any vast improvement over 4.1 so far, and not seeing any new artwork other than the boot screen.
Nice little service pack.
