Monthly Poll suggestion. November 2008 - Now LIVE!!!!!!

Hello Guys and Gals.

I have run out of ideas for a poll on this site, so, from now on, the monthly poll will be open to ideas from our members. Winning suggestion will be decided by Amigans.net staff and put up for a month.

Over to you.

@Mikey_C

@Rigo

Maybe Mikey wants a monthly POLE!!!

@Mikey_C

Just pick 2 people then

@Mikey_C

How about a re-run of my poll from last year:
http://www.amigans.net/modules/xoopsp ... ollresults.php?poll_id=15

Since then, we've had OS4.0 for the classic and OS4.1 released. Might be interesting to see how that has changed things.

Alternatively "which version of the OS do you mainly use" might be more useful.

To clear the space for the additional 4.1 option, merge 2.04/2.1 into a single 2.x.

Oooh! *jumps up and down* I've got another one but I'll save it for next month!

Hi Mikey_C,


I was thinking of opening a thread, but a poll may also be okay.


How reliable have you found using AOS4.0 final, and FFS is?

I'm not that reliable, since I'm still using AOS4 prerelease 4, but I have had uptimes of 29 to 32 days, and haven't, to my abilities to remember, lost data or had any kind of filesystem mishap.

I would say, 99% reliable, so far! (Let's leave a bit open, should anything occur.)

Oh and, needing a reinstall? Don't make me laugh!!!


AOS4.0 is A-One in my opinion!


(About the lockup, and it's always about 29 to 32 days, over 8 times so far, the computer keeps running, like the clock program and OGR25 (oh, and once I was able to see the OGR25 running, and when it ran out of packets, it couldn't open the ethernet link to the internet to send and receive new packets), but the mouse and keyboard are rendered useless. I use the PS/2 sockets, not USB. BTW, I've had AWeb 3.5.08 run for 25 days continuously, under heavy load (24 windows open) without crashing. It's an Amiga treasure! I don't use IBrowse as I can't buy a key. I tried to buy one, it isn't available. )

Hi Mrodfr,

I bought Aladdin 4D a few months ago when they had the 2 day price drop. I bought it in the hope of, if enough people get it a PPC version will be compiled. DiscreetFX are hopefully working on this right now.

How about:
Is your use of (micro)AmigaOne/AOS4.x increasing, decreasing, the same.

Problem with above question is that, AOS4.0 is available on PPC accelerators also. Those users would respond differently as they have slower HW, and may be lowering their usuage of AOS4.0 because of it.

@Mikey_C

How about Amkit? I think think they are working on a AmiKit distro for OS4?

@AmiKit

I had Amikit 1.5 installed on my laptop at the Mag bash. (Thanks rats). I never realised how easy it was, all I needed was my OS3.9 CD and bob's your uncle.
Very slick, and very well done!!

Gone with your suggestion, excellent idea, just waiting for Orgin to put it up.
