Survey on OS4-version for Mac-Computer
Markus Bonet wrote: In order to find out if the Amiga community is interested in a port of OS4.x to the Mac-platform, I have started a poll on Micropoll.
This is a private survey and has not any connections to Hyperion. But of course I will make available the results of the poll to Hyperion.
It would be great if many users would take part.
