[comp.os.os9] OS9 for Amiga and MIPSCO

Hi there,

can anyone who is using OS9 for the Amiga like to return a comment about
how good the Amiga version is. 

	Is it the latest version of OS9.
	Support for specialized graphics and sound hardware.
	Support for hard disks.
	Pricing.

How about it Microware what is the prefered OS9 hardware platform?

And also I'm pretty sure that there wont be a version for the MIPS Co
range of risc chips.  But I have a developement machine here which is
doing nothing and I was wondering how difficult it would be to port OS9
to this beasty.  I was interested in seeing os9 run on a 16-38 mip box
with workstation quality graphics!  Would it be a difficult job?

Is source available for interested secure parties who are willing to
sign non-disclosures?

regards,

Walter
