Unboxing A.L.I.C.E. (A Laptop Incorporating a Classic Experience)

So... yes it's money and time!

I think it's better for ME to let them to do it!

i have set up amiga emulation on every system i use, inclusive the laptop im currently posting from. it isnt complicated at all. and it is free, just take winuae for windows and fs-use for linux. i even tend to use fs-uae under a linux vr to have direct access to my development builds from the emulation.

also setting up the software should be no brainer. you can copy your working setup over, just watch for things like the correct cpu libs in case of 040/060. as i usually use aros anyway, i literally do not have any problem to set up amiga anywhere. i just decompress aros iso to a directory that is used as system drive by uae, edit one or two lines of scripts, and fire it up, optionally adjusting few settings.

Maybe you should write up a real step by step on how to do this as you described.
With the "scripts" completely written out.

i have done it repeatedly for everyone seriously interested. its trivial. to run aros on your amiga computer drcompress nightly to your boot partition and edit the s-s adding at the beginning:
arosbootstrap boot/amiga/aros.hunk.gz

and optionally appending the p96 drivers along with paths in this line just behind, juts like that:
cirrusgd542x.chip picassoii.card

simple. isnt it?

So is mowing your lawn or walking your dog - yet some people chose to pay a neighbour's kid to do that for them.

if you bought a dog only to have some neighbour kid to walk it out, then i think you money might have been better spent.

Now I'm really confused...

BTW, I don't have a dog

alright. its a waste of time, go, get your alice laptop.
