So does AROS actually run nice, smooth, and nearly flawlessly on this hardware, or does is screw up left and right like it does on about any other PC with supported hardware?

I never really had a problem with it on my non-ares aros box. Although it did take a couple different tries to find a mobo that would boot with it. It was kinda odd that I had two different manufacture's mobos based upon the same chipset and one booted fine and the other locked up after selecting a graphics mode.:confused:

Anyway, I for one, would be more tempted to buy one of these media oriented AROS boxes if somebody would get samba or any other way to access windows/linux shares working and stable out of the box. Transfering 12tb of media to a machine running a beta OS isn't something I'm willing to do. Hell, just transferring that much data is a nightmare, never mind the OS.
