AROS needs more classic apps
« on: April 17, 2014, 04:57:17 AM »
AROS feels unfamiliar because there are not enough of the old software I use to use.
How do you set up some of the old software like Final Copy, Deluxe paint? Other than via UAE.

This is disappointing, I assumed the purpose of aros 68k was to be able to run old software.
If all software has to be rewritten, then Linux would be just as good.

If you are running AROS on 68k hardware, you can run all your old apps :)
