I made a suggestion that AmigaOS x86 was an effort to displace AROS. It was a possiblity, not fact, and I presented it as such.


I wouldn’t regard the current ‘AROS (referring to the main X86 distribution)’ as ‘AmigaOS X86’ since it doesn’t run the old 'AmigaOS' based legacy software** on the X86 hardware. Secondly, AROS doesn’t quite have an official “AmigaOS” endorsement.  It’s just a clone**** with source code compatibility on non-68k hardware.  

I don’t see people in the mainstream market labelling ‘OS/2 Warp’(with Windows compatibility) as ‘MS Windows’…  

**Binary distributions.
****A clone that has potential.

I do hope that Amiga Inc can control their unnecessary expenditures in the near future. Events such as mentioned earlier doesn’t help with evangelism of AmigaOS platform.
