MorphOS at a glance
Introducing Ambient
Not unlike the top surface of your desk, Ambient is what you see once you successfully boot into MorphOS. Everything that you need to use your computer can neatly arranged only on this one screen. Using ambient you can have an unlimited number of screens, but more about this later.
The desktop
To make this workspace less crowded, Ambient cleverly organizes all your belongings, similar to a system of neat drawers and files. On the top left corner you will see small icons, these are your actual partitions. Clicking on any of them you can open them in windows, and opening the drawers or executing your programs you can discover your entire file structure.
My MorphOS
Also in the top right corner you will find the MyMorphOS icon. Through this one icon you can conveniently access all the others icons, regardless of the partitions they are residing in. Thinking of your belongings as a tree, MyMorphOS is like the central root of your well grown tree. You can reach all trunks originating from this root (your partitions), branches (drawers) and leaves (files).
