Re:Ask HN: How is the iPhone 4S disappointing?

It's not disappointing. It's evolutionary, using predictably better components. Like most mature Apple products.
I was a little disappointed (but not really surprised) that the Nano was rev'd without adding apps, which would be a) cool and b) further open the app store to new devices.

Tab completion is a good one! According to Wikipedia, "one of the first examples appeared in the Berkeley Timesharing System for the SDS 940" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_completion).

Outstanding. I will give this a go ASAP.
PS: I'm the author of this article. Had a great time thinking about all the fun systems I've played with over the years and researching their history.

Amiga is one of the big OSes I never got a chance to play with, though I know it had some innovative features and very loyal users.
Other than finding an old Amiga, is there a practical way to give it a try today?
