Mehh, getting hung up on the fact it doesnt have memory protection... Im sorry but if all the programs are well tested it aint needed, hell it stops people selling unstable software like I seem to keep finding on the PC (Stupid Pageplus)
I really dont like that little review, its almost like he didnt even try Aros and just asked "does it have this" "does it have that"
Sorry for the bad review guys, keep up the great work!


Claiming that memory protection is a useless feature and that it could be solved simply by testing programs better is just silly (no offence). It's like saying we don't need no law enforcement - just tell people to be good instead. Then... there's reality. Applications are a lot more complex today compared to 20 years ago.

No matter how much I like AROS, the lack of memory protection is a definitely a bad thing.

Quite the contrary :-) I just happen to think memory protection is an essential feature in a modern OS.
