That's the drama so far yes, nice conlcusion.

Regardnig AROS hardware, I hope "some people" realize that those two guys selling AROS hardware actually are contributing more to AROS than "some people" probably ever donated in their lifetime. It's a give and take and to me it seems they've given alot more and I doubt they   yet made one cent profit.

Just wanted to point that out.
AmigaOS or MorphOS on x86 would sell orders of magnitude more than the current, hardware-intensive solutions. And they\\\'d go faster. --D.Haynie

As the original hardware guy of AROS, let me explain something.  Without having any OEMs supporting AROS, AROS will have zero chance in having real growth.  

AROS is having some growth at the moment. "Real growth" can happen when AROS does everything every other OS does but faster or in a more efficient way. Seriously I can't see any of the Amiga systems out there today to have any real growth anytime soon.

For AROS, Imica and Ares is just a common denominator for hardware that runs AROS fine. If that helps attract new devs and users then that's just great. So their efforts fixes the hardware problem part for the moment. What's much needed now is dev.tools that makes programming for AROS easy and good documentation.  If AROS scares away devs as soon as they get it running then that's AROS biggest problem now.
