Select5i2 featuring RISC OS 6.16
released |
|
RISCOS Ltd. is pleased to announce that the latest Select
ROM, RISC OS 6.16, Select 5i2 is now available for download from the Select
subscribers' private area on the RISCOS Ltd. web
site.
This latest version does not have any new features, rather
we have concentrated on consolidating and optimizing the existing feature
set based in part upon feedback from users. RISC OS 6.16 builds upon the
numerous enhancements already made since the introduction of RISC OS 6 in
2007. Once again much work has been done to optimize code to produce even
greater stability and significant speed improvements in several critical
areas as well as increasing user responsiveness.

What is RISC OS 6? |
|
RISC OS 6 is the latest, most up to date, version of RISC OS to be
developed by RISCOS Ltd. It is now based on a completely 26 bit / 32 bit
neutral source.
It is ONLY available for Risc PC, A7000 and Virtual Acorn
products under the RISC OS Select scheme. See the FAQ section for further details.
Since the launch of Select 3 / OS 4.39 (Adjust ROM) all the
development work has gone into the 32 bit conversion of the remainder of the
RISC OS Sources that had not previously been converted as part of the RISC
OS Select scheme. As might be expected this has been a mammoth undertaking
and we hope that the wait has been worthwhile.
Unlike RISC OS 4.39 "Adjust" ROMs, RISC OS 6 is only available as a softload
version. It is NOT available as a new set of ROMs as the size of the ROM
image is now too fit to fit in the physical ROM slots in a Risc PC or A7000.

How can I get RISC OS 6? |
|

subscribers.. Please note that RISC OS 6 is a softload version of RISC OS, so the existing version of
