The following pointer based HID hardware should be removed from the list of "supported hardware". This hardware is not suported by the "os" itself, as applications can't use or access it by themself with the help of fos. This hardware is (if at all) only used by a sub-program, the fileselector module. The support itself is not an "OS feature" at all. So if you call fos an "OS" it's not possible to mention this hardware as "supported".
<br> Please correct me, if I am wrong. Otherwise the following sections should be removed.
<br>
<br>
<br> Indeed you are wrong, all these devices are supported by FutureOS, just connect it to the CPC. You can use them to control the Desktop or for foreigen programs. Naturally the Plus devices (analogue joystick etc.) are only usable by a CPC Plus. All devices can be accesseb by OS routines. See documentation. So I have to correct your updates, because they are just wrong. And by the way I'm waiting for an excuse for your insulting phrases. [[TFM|TFM]].

<br> The following hardware doesn't seem to be supported as well: <br> *[[CPC Booster|CPC Booster(+)]] *HD64180 Coprocessor card
*[[CPC Booster|CPC Booster(+)]]
*HD64180 Coprocessor card
*IDE hard discs (173 KB/s with [[IDE8255|IDE8255]], 162 KB/s with [[CPC-IDE|CPC-IDE]] or [[SYMBiFACE II|SYMBiFACE II]])
Regarding the last one, there maybe routines for reading and writing some single sectors (btw. such small routines can be downloaded here: [[SYMBiFACE II:IDE routines|SYMBiFACE_II:IDE_routines]] ;-)). This is a feature of a BIOS, not of an OS. Both IDE interfaces are still completely useless for applications in Fos, as long as they don't implement the filesystem by themself (which would be quite crazy of course).
<br> Regarding the Rom expansions, I don't understand the reason, why they are listed, too? Only because of the fact, that Fos requires 4 roms to be able to run? The other thing is, that they are all compatible, so it's senseless to list them all. It would be the same like mentioning all Atari-compatible Digital-Joysticks (Competition Pro, Quickshot, Jet Fighter etc.) in the Joystick section. Seems, that these entries are only for blowing up the list.

<br> Again you're wrong. The IDE support is in the IDE ROM of FutureOS. Everybody can download it. The CPC Booster support is maybe few, but no questioin still existing in the core OS ROMs.
<br> Further CBM is DEFINITLY a part of the OS. As the programmer of FutureOS I know it better than a person who wants again to fight aginst a concurent OS. I have also to revert the text.
<br> Further only the compatible and tested ROM expansions are listed. Joysticks are not ROM boards. And for sure the sos is not able to use them all. Or have you tried Super ROMbard Plus (provides ROMs with ROM selects 16-31)? The world it not that simple as you think. <br> And please stop insulting me and FutureOS. Since you feel insulted by every piece of dust, you should better know how to deal with words. You behave here like a little child that tries to beat up the toy of another child. And sorry for any insults, if I made some by accident with out even knowing. [[TFM|TFM]].
And please stop insulting me :'''So, first you call someone a child and FutureOS. Since then you feel insulted by every piece of dustsay 'sorry! I didn't know I'm insulting you'?? Consider this a warning, a blip more out of your fingers and you should better know how to deal with words. You behave here like 're banned for a little child that tries to beat up the toy couple of weeks before this turns into yet another child. And sorry for any insults, if I made some by accident with out even knowingflame. [[TFMUser:Gryzor|TFMGryzor]].'''
