After watching what was happening with AROS for sometime now and after reading this thread I decided to give icaros ago, after working out what setting to choose to boot with to get the display to come up correctly I got to the desktop/workbench.
Everything looks good, I also liked the little red arrow in the corner, very nice touch. Downside is I could not get it to connect to the network none of the drivers on the live CD would work with my Broadcom chipset network card.
Gave up in the end so didn't even try to get sound working, will wait awhile longer I guess.
