Honestly, this list of features is really impressive, I’m really starting to see what made AmigaOS so special for so many people, and I’m a hard-line *nix gal. AmigaOS seems really unique, in that it’s an especially lightweight, responsive, yet structurally clever and well thought through system. It must’ve felt light years ahead of everything well into the 90s. This is definitely making me want to upgrade my A500 to Kickstart 2.04 or 3.1 to get these features.
It’s kind of sad how much diversity and uniqueness and interesting design we lost in software as well as hardware entering the modern age.
