It gives a huge, deep history lesson from author's perspective covering important events, hardware/software, and especially the culture. It was fascinating. Also made me hold off on MorphOS for one of my projects.
- ZenoArrow 9y agoThanks for sharing the comment, but it's got a number of inaccuracies. For example... > "The problem was that OS wasn’t completely prepared for that, but clever people from Phase5 found a way - they made their own microkernel (called PowerUP, later WarpUP)" PowerUP and WarpUP were competitors, and were the seeds for the later Red vs. Blue civil war. If you'd like a clearer history of the Amiga, I'd recommend this series of articles on Ars Technica (it doesn't mention AROS, but is otherwise a good introduction): https://arstechnica.com/series/history-of-the-amiga/ https://arstechnica.com/series/history-of-the-amiga/
