Timberwolf (a.k.a. Firefox) Alpha 1 For AmigaOS

Posted by timothy on from the because-it-was-there dept.

An anonymous reader writes "We're happy to announce the availability of the first alpha release of Timberwolf, the AmigaOS port of the popular Firefox browser. Timberwolf needs AmigaOS 4.1 Update 2 installed. Please read the documentation for information about usage and limitations. This is an alpha release, meaning it will have a lot of problems still, and be slower than it should be. We are releasing it as a small 'Thank you' to all those that have donated in the past to show that development is still going on. Timberwolf is available on os4depot.net. For further information and feedback, check the Timberwolf support forum on amigans.net."

    People still use Amigas? Why?

      Quite. It's dead Jim, give it up. What's next? a DOS version, CPM Acorn OS. OK It's a geek thing to say we can. How many Amiga systems still work? So 3 other people download it, say WOW, and then never use it again? No doubt I'll be called a troll but really shouldn't you put your mad skillz to a better use?

      Really? From all the things you chose in life, you choose THIS?
      O...k...
      I mean, do whatever makes you happy.
      But... what the hell, dude? ;)
      Shall I invite you to a party with some girls?
      Or skydiving maybe?
      Or racing a rally car trough South America?
      Or even just writing a game.
      You know... for great justice! ;)
