Re: AROS ... How far is it ?

I'm really excited about AROS. It is one of the best ideas I've seen in the Amiga comunity lately. It is such a great work also. If you compare the time A Inc spent to have OS4 from the OS3 sources, and the time that AROS took to be written from scratch by users, not companies, it is VERY impressive.

I would like to have a stable version of it. The last one I've downloaded crashes very often, but I understand it is still under development, and It will work fine one day

My home PC runs it nice, but It doesn't work with the Dell Dimension I use at my job. My computer has a PCChips mobo and a Semprom 2200+

One of the things I really like in Aros is that like the Amiga, it boots fast, and you don't need to turn it off like Windows and Linux. Just push tha button and say goodbye

Just Can't wait to test Traveller...

One question to the Aros Gurus :

    What would be a nice PC configuration to run Aros ? I really would like to see it running nice without crashes, and I believe the problem is my PC.

Probably any old nforce2 mobos would be pretty close to perfect.  Now there is a bounty for ASUS EEE PC support.

Mine have a SIS chipset. Are there any known problems with that ? Or with Semprom ?
