Philosophical question related to AROS vs OS4

[runequester]

I'd love to see amiga OS running on ARM processors. There's plenty of very cheap options out there, and it'd be easy and cheap to build a "amiga" machine, rather than relying on obscure expensive hardware or old, used mac's.
 
AROS will run on what you have right now though, and its very forgiving on the system resources even on a sub optimal system

Well, if I want to run such HW hitting apps or games I do it with WinUAE. WinUAE is superior to any other UAE, including AROS one.

winUAE does get a lot more love, but performance wise, e-uae runs even alien breed 3D 2 nice and smooth, on my machine, which isn't a monster by any stretch.
 
The main benefit of the windows version is that it has more options to customize the setup.

BTW, talking about monster machines, Piru and fishy_fiz competing just to see who has the fastest Core 2 (Duo or Quad) was really immature, but funny! Reminded me my teenage days...
...and I don't respect anyone with something slower than an i7.
...and I stoped overclocking machines when I got myself tweaking car radiators to adapt them into my home-made watercooling solution....
hehee...

I always got more interest in what you can do with limited resources. Anyone can toss more hardware at a problem. Good programming is achieving the goal with less.
Part of what fascinates me about the amiga, to this day. The stuff that was capable with 1024 kb of RAM and a 7 mhz processor
