We take all Amiga systems into account. We try to do our best not
to leave anyone behind.

AmigaOS 3.2 will work on any hardware/software combination that is
sufficiently smilar to an Amiga. There are no special provisions for
specific hardware other than what the known Commodore Amiga models
provided out of the box.

And speaking of the future, that really depends on you, the user. We
have some ideas that we collect as a team, but it is yet to soon to
elaborate on them since we have a more immediate task at hand: develop
and test AmigaOS 3.2. So that is why it is of paramount importance
that you have a saying in what are your likes and dislikes as a user,
because these will influence directly on desision making when the time
comes.

We would love to help Chris. We need to support other developers. I
believe Olaf tried in the past to help him in some related matters.
Our hands are tied right now because we are very few, with a lot of
work ahead. But at least we now know, thanks to you, the situation
regarding NetSurf annd whom to approach.

@spudje

The AtapiMagic module was supplied by Thomas Richter in order to test
its compatibility on enabling 4 way ide interfaces. The result was not
what was expected, and while it worked on some systems, unfortunately
on others, like yours, it failed. We don't knowingly ship half working
components, as we are commited on quality. So, it is unlikely you will
see this component released, unless it gets seriously fixed. And
realistically I would not bet on that for the time being.

On the other hand, itt is funny that you mention those features,
because they were part of our internal conversations some time ago. I
will take note on those for review when the time comes to trace a path
beyond 3.2.

@th4t1guy

After some back and forth trying to solve this issue, fortunately
enough, the HDToolBox "max transfer" value is no longer required on
the built-in scsi.device driver of 3.2, and also on drive interfaces
made by the manufacturer formerly known as "GVP".

@pipper

We all agree with you to keep everyone on board, not leaving 68000
users behind is still our objective and we are succeding in that.

AmigaOS 3.2 will work on humble machines. The hardware requirements of
3.1.4 are the still much the same on 3.2.
