Enter the future soon with Amiga (MorphOS) at 2.7GHz PPC machine

Michal — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 11:37:51 +0000

Bigfoot aka Mark Olsen from Denmark is part of MorphOS Team. Now he is teasing the world with MorphOS running on a G5 PPC mac! Fastest consumer PPC machine which have been sold to consumers is clocked a 2.7GHz G5. If MorphOS Team delivers this in the end, I am sure MorphOS will have good competition hardware against the new AmigaOne X1000. Now MorphOS needs video editing software and some office apps and I am sure it will be a nice home computing choice.

Expand your creative experience with HTML5 and OWB for MorphOS

Michal — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 18:45:17 +0000

Amigans is known for beeing creative and productive. Now with HTML5 support in MorphOS version of OWB, the world wide web expands Amiga experience into new level. Now you can play HTML5 games, watch YouTube, Vimeo and HTML5 video trailers with your own OWB browser for MorphOS. But you can also create things with your mousepointer without installing any graphic program onto your MorphOS machine. Let me guide you thru 2 of the coolest HTML5 drawing programs which is tested and works! Rest you will be able to watch in next Amitopia TV show!

Harmony
Link: Harmony (html5) on-line
This is a nice and easy drawing program. You have several tools from a pulldown menu. Can make nice effects and feels like its a show off program, but it does the job. But remember that there is no Undo option, so remember that when you draw. Positive: Great and nice show off of what HTML5 can do. Works great on MacMini G4 (tested). Negative: No Undo function

Sketchpad
Link: Sketchpat (html5) on-line
If you were amazed by MS Paint, then I wonder who you are? Well, Sketchpad puts MS Paint to shame. Yes it is something much better!… A great lightlight-Photoshop alike drawing program on-line. This one works 100% on OWB for MorphOS. All menus are transparent, but that doesn’t slows the program down on my MacMini G4 which is the test MorphOS I’ve been using. Really great alternative to fXpaint or TvPaint if you want just a simple paint program which works. Program even got History like in Photoshop, means you can paint and undo. I really find this program even usefull and not just a showcase for what HTML5 can do. Great stuff and best of all, its free to use.

For more info about HTML5 and OWB for MorphOS, See future Amitopia TV productions.
