I will likely never purchase aos4 or an aos4 machine.
The cost is ridiculous for 10+ year old hardware specs.
AROS is worlds ahead in my opinion...

The hardware is ahead, the OS is behind and far behind too.
I don't think so. I've tried out a friends os4 system and ware really dissapointed. I expected it to be more feature rich than AROS but the truth is, it really isn't.
I expected it might be faster, but the truth is, AOS4 on a 1ghz system is certainly less snappy than Aros on a 2ghz pc. Aros on a 3ghz system smokes it. No comparison at all.
Icaros also comes preconfigured with tons of utilities, games, apps and so on. AOS4 comes with nothing, and your likely to spend a few weeks getting it up to the functionality of a freshly installed icaros system.
To each his own. I choose AROS.
