Amiga OS 3.9 already runs everywhere. So?

It only is limited to past and requires JIT for productive use.

(running AOS3.9 on emulator on x86 is cost efficient way to use 68k Amiga on high res display, on laptop and with some 1Ghz 68060, other than that, not interested. + MorphOS on PowerBook already covers my mobile 68k/AmigaOS needs. (and  I also have AOS4 system))

Enlightenment is my choice of GUI due to its minimalism, yet simplicity of use while being eye appealing and not a resource hog.

I am far from a critic of Amiga, I'm an advocate actually, but I think its best chance of not fading into obscurity relies on the promotion of DragonFlyBSD.


Silly how heavy Enlightenment was on 200Mhz PPro. Time has done miracles.
I tried bodhi on 10year old 2.4Ghz Celeron machine, it was pretty fast even without HW accelerated graphics. But the the SW support stopped and new bodhi is too picky with HW, so:
Is there a live CD to try DragonFlyBSD + Enlightenment combo?
