AROS Hits the Papers.
« on: March 05, 2004, 11:54:02 PM »
A Status Update is overdue, we know that already, no need to remind us ;-) In the meantime, let me announce an important fact: thanks to Paolo Besser, this month's edition of the best selling Italian PC game magazine, TGM, is shipping with a copy of AROS on its DVD, a review of AROS and a full blown tutorial which will guide you trough the process of installing AROS on an hard disk.

Its quite easy to install AROS :) however it takes its time (the _very_ basic installer is slow)! on another note support for PNG icons has been added :Q + there is more goodies comming this and next month stay tuned.

This has probably been said to death before but ill repeat it anyways  no its not and its has not been planned at all (nobody in the current AROS team has any interest in it as far as i know! for us UAE inside AROS is more then enough).

Id rather have native appz then emulated ones but maybe thats just me :) im quite confident AROS will gain more and more software as time passes by! some Amiga appz of course you will never see an AROS version of but you cant have everything you want here in life.

Im sorry but as we have probably stated a zillion times ;) its quite hard implementing a 68k emulator in the same way as on MOS/OS4 in fact if we do it will dragg down the whole OS performance (on x86)  and thats NOT AN OPTION (at least in my eyes)! then we should also add that there is starting to be quite vocal requests for MP and other things its impossile to add without breaking compatibility with AmigaOS! you just cant have it all im afraid.
