That was the best "down to earth" post I have ever read on a.org i think.
I'm (long ago) fed up with the crooks and I'll be behind Aros instead. I don't have to ever pay for overpriced hardware again, and since Aros is my hobby OS, every penny I spend on it I can decide to input to bounties or pay developers directly.
AmigaOS or MorphOS on x86 would sell orders of magnitude more than the current, hardware-intensive solutions. And they\\\'d go faster. --D.Haynie

The big drawback on AROS is the lack of hardware support, the last few "clunkers" (p3/p4) I've laid my hands on couldn't load AROS, but running it in Fusion it seems to be a nice OS...


The biggest advantage of AROS compared to OS4 and MOS is that it boots and is usable on lots and lots of hardware out there. If you've been unlucky you should have turned to Aros-Exec for help, there's a lot of happy people willing to help you whenever they can. I have access to a lot of Fujitsu-Seimens PC's for example and I have a hard time finding one that doesn't boot Aros nowdays.
