Regardless I don't exactly share his enthusiasm.
And this is a very fine thread to explain, in a civilised manner, why. :-)


I have little enthusiasm for anything Amiga these days, but AROS is still fun and Icarus is the best way to have fun with AROS.

Anubis probably won't amount to too much, but is is the only and best hope that the Amiga concept has to continue... Because of it I have spent a lot of time reading up about Unix, and you really have to see just how antiquated AmigaOS is!!

Both Anubis and AROS bring a smile to my face :-)

That is the Win32 Userspace... We know that's lame... The WinNT kernel isn't bad... It's pretty much VMS :-)
