| | Name of the Amiga Operating System |
 | | In the Amiga, like on other computers, the operating system consists of a part that is loaded from disk (floppy disk or hard disk), and a part which is stored in higher speed and/or read only memory (e.g. | | | Even for the 1985 Byte Magazine Amiga article (included in Amiga Forever), which introduced the Amiga to the masses, the Amiga and its operating system were simply... | | | When the Amiga was launched, in 1985, operating systems, and the word "operating system" itself, while well known to computer science students, did not have as strong an identity and recognition to the broad audience as they would have in the following decades. |

| | In computing, a shell is a piece of software that essentially provides a kind of interface for end-users. | | | Explorer provides the familiar desktop environment, start menu, and task bar, as well as the file management functions of the operating system. | | | CLI proponents claim that certain operations can be performed much faster under CLI shells than under GUI shells (such as moving files, for example). |

| | Virtual PC Guy's WebLog : The difference between floppy configuration on Virtual PC and Virtual Server |
| | This was possible because the Amiga hardware would actually inform the operating system of the fact that a floppy disk had been inserted. | | | Well, original Amiga's were able to automatically detect and mount floppy disks as they were inserted into the computer. | | | In order to emulate the behavior of the original Amiga OS on top of standard PC hardware - the Amiga Research Operating System periodically attempts to read from the floppy disk, which causes Virtual PC to hit the physical floppy drive, and causes the pause that I observed. |
