Hi,

I've read several times from the blue smurf propaganda department that MorphOS is so way ahead of AROS. Care to elaborate?


I am an AROS developer and find all these 'my amiga-like OS is better then your amiga-like OS' discussions counterproductive. Unfortunately some people here think it is a very important discussion.

I can't speak for all AROS devs but IMO as an AROS developer I find people who use AROS to brag to other amigans don't get what AROS is about. I am developing AROS for the whole amiga community and everybody who wants to use my code is free to do so. Don't mind if he is a classic OS, OS4, MOS or AROS user and/or developer. The only thing I ask is to obey the open source nature of the code.

greets,
Staf.

MorphOS is polished enough to rely on and AROS is interesting, and even fun, but not reliable (sorry Staf).


NP, I think most AROS devs are well aware of the current shortcomings of AROS but I do think we have to potential to overcome a lot them quite fast.
It's just the old ethernal infighting in the amiga community that annoys me; and I have to admit this thread has been one of the less loaded once.

greets,
Staf.

Yeah, if you want to run on one quarter of the processor, AROS will run on an i7.
Its a pointless misuse of a multicore processor, but it can be done.


Don't think Morphos or any other amiga-like OS is doing better in that regard; only their CPUs are a little slower.
Nothing is stopping you from starting 4 AROS hosted versions under Linux though ;)
