I agree that Open source is really the only viable option for a hobby platform. However, AROS* simply isn't ready yet and there is a lot of software missing (And I'm not talking OpenOffice/FireFox here). Things are most certainly improving, but there is still some way to go.
As an OS it's pretty much there now... just wating on Michal's OHCI driver, really...
Perhaps an Audit of what software is needed would a good idea?
Having said all that there is a possibility that there might be an interesting AROS-related development later on in the year.
You know it ;-)
I expect AROS to really gain momentum once the PPC and 68k versions are publicly available... thus allowing anti x86 users to enjoy it :-)
*Otherwise known as AROSROSROSROSROSROSROS... ;-)
Hahahahah :-)
