Is AROS really worth using ? Or is it still only at 'curiousity' level ?
I'm particularly interested in the Native Version...

Hmm, good question... I find it useful, as I can boot a machine up at work (takes about 20seconds) and then play games. Then I can reboot and go back in the stinky WinNT4 (which is locked so than nothing can be installed, though this is not too dificult to get around :-D ).
But most of you will probably find it a curiousity, at least until we get a TCP/IP stack for Internet/networking.
I think it's quite pretty to look at too. so I often just leave it running on my machine when people come around, and get a few bemused looks from them (many of whome had an Amiga many years ago).
Correct me if im wrong, but, the new TCP/IP stack done for AmigaO4 i think was done by Olaf Barthel and was done by porting the original BSD sources...
If you'r looking for easily portable stack source, maybe that would be a good place to start?
If it compiles for AmigaOS4, there could be a good change of it compiling under AROS without modification, but you'd prolly know more about that then me
