![]() I got confirmation from a core developer that future releases will have full support.īut regardless of that, how does a SAM 460 fare? Well, it got pretty poor price/performace ratio, having only a single core CPU at 1.1 GHz. ![]() Indeed, it took them over 2 years to get WiFi to work. Rather than waiting they released MorphOS without that support. This is similar to the 3.0 release when the newly supported Powerbooks lacked working WiFi. The MorphOS Team still has a lot of work to do with those, but rather than waiting with the 3.8 release anymore they rather released it in this state. But it’s still in a rudementary state as they lack hardware 2D and 3D acceleration. ![]() They finally caved to the preasure and the result now is support for these two motherboards.Įven better, MorphOS now support several modern RadeonHD PCI-e graphics cards as well. Which amount to a very small list since it has to be PPC based. A lot of people has asked the MorphOS Team to support something/anything that is still being made. While AROS have had a lot of new, cheap hardware to play with, and AmigaOS 4 new (but not cheap) hardware for years and years now MorphOS has not since 2006, when the Pegasos II motherboard stopped being made ( edit: as jPV pointed out you could (and still can) buy the very cheap and very underpowered Efika 5200b home servers after the Pegasos). So what is most notable here? It has to be the support of Acubes SAM 460 and 460CR motherboards. A chance to see every other MorphOS user out there enjoying these nice new features that I’ve taken for granted for so long now. But since I’m a betatester I have been enjoying these improvements for quite some time now, so for me this is more a conclusion rather than something new and exciting. ![]() Just by looking at the release notes you will see an impressive list of news, bugfixes and improvements. After 9 months of development version 3.8 of MorphOS was finally released on Friday the 15th.
