It says - Amiga Compatible - Can I run Amiga Software on it ?

No. AROS can't run amiga software.

AROS does have limited source level compatibility however. Still, you can't take source as-is and rebuild it for AROS, usually some attention to byteorder is required (plus if the source doesn't build with GCC originally you need to do the gcc transformation. Depending on the source code this might be fixing couple of lines, or a lot more work).

Running m68k software is possible with UAE but if you'll use AROS for this, why not use WinUAE directly?
