Well, they are still making hardware I think.

But, I am not surprised at your post.

@all

It might be worth buying this to update your A1 OS4 components, as well as a way of supporting Hyperion. See here for more info. (post#34

I think it just isn't worth the system stability risk to copy over components as Rogue suggested. Some components will rely on fixes that are not contained in the AmigaOne version and nobody knows what those interactions may be if any. We never tested that so you would be on your own.

Personally I would let the beta testers do their job and update only when the AmigaOne version is updated.

I would call such an idea "Mostly Harmless" but we like I said, we never tested it. Buyer beware.

Indeed, as I tried to make clear on that AmigaWorld thread. The components will be released on the A1 eventually (although no timeframe), and things might depend on kernel features.

I don't really foresee any trouble, but that does not mean there won't me any.

This is excellent news, congratulations!

May the resellers' phone lines and servers be very busy on release date... :o)
