The fourth beta for Haiku R1 over a year and a half of hard work to improve Haiku's hardware support and its overall stability, and to make lots more software ports available for use. Over 400 bugs and enhancement tickets have been resolved for this release.

There's a lot here to talk about. The improved support for HiDPI looks amazing, and definitely a must-have in today's world of 4K displays. There's lots of new and improved drivers, including a new compatibility layer for OpenBSD WiFi drivers, a new NTFS driver, and more. The number of ports has increased by a lot thanks to X11, Gtk+, and even Wayland compatibility - Inkscape, GIMP, GNOME Web, and more. Wine has also been ported to Haiku, using a Haiku-native windowing and input backend. And much, much more.

Pretty good way to start Christmas.
