I'm eager to see this released!

No doubt, as much as it makes me cringe...


...I really like the idea of including WINE with this. If I could run all my DOOM Editing programs from an AROS interface, I'd be in 7th...

...no 8th heaven!

If Half-Life 2 ran, I'd be in 9th Heaven.

Windows compatibility aside, it would be nice to have those few key apps that work well in Linux, and I believe this would resolve a lot of driver limitations that AROS currently has.

Granted, it would be better if AROS just had WINE and more drivers and this and that, but hey, if I don't know I'm actually running on top of Linux, then I'm happy, and I think this will draw in a lot more users.
