Hmmm..

Doesn't sound like anyone has re-writen
Amiga Dos to run on a INTEL chip.

Windows is slow enough on a 500mhz machine
without emulating Amiga. I can imagine what
it would be like when emulating Amiga.
My A3000-25 would probably look like a 'Rocket
Sled' in comparison.

I'll have to think about it.....

Won't happen due to technical reasons, as the system-structures
of AROS-x86 are not binary-compatible with AOS-68k.

AROS-UAE has to be enough.


The problem is due to the "Endieness" of the 2 CPU's, 68K being big endien and the x86 being little endien, other than that there are no problems.

I think we will get UAE  (UAE will of course be running a 68K version of AROS, so no AmigaROM will be needed) integrated into AROS as a sandbox, I guess in a similar way to MacOSX with it's OS9 sandbox.
