As long as the host OS has something equal to vmware, it can run AROS hosted without issue. Your thinking of natively running on notebooks which may indeed have issues because of the unusual hardware that maybe be found in a notebook.

BTW AROS Live doesn't boot on my notebook

It may have some freaky userland stuff in place of the GNU and other popular programs, but it's still Linux even if it isn't GNU/Linux.
charity OS
MOS.
Those two I could easily see be threatened by Anubis-OS in the coming years.
I don't agree here. The target audiences are somewhat different: MorphOS is PPC, Anubis x86. MorphOS runs amiga apps directly, Anubis doesn't.
Your forgetting ARM for Anubis-OS and probably PPC (SAM and EFIKA I) as well.
I'd still like to hear about this "charity" thing, btw.
What none main stream OS are you paying money for that isn't selling in the hundreds of thousands?
@dammy Quote: What none main stream OS are you paying money for that isn't selling in the hundreds of thousands? How does it make it charity?
I would most certainly call paying for a tiny hobby OS that is not economically viable an act of charity.

So equally, you think that paying developers via bounty system is charity aswell?
And free beer, don't forget free beer!
This whole Arix thing is like nailing jelly to the wall, everything is bluster, big talk, give us an OS that we can play with, the Source Forge page downloads section is empty...
