ya know that Gateway saw the next Amiga as a Linux kernel but with a GUI that gave it the Amiga look and feel and old software running under emulation. The users said"Yeccchhh". Maybe Gateway was right.
Maybe the users were right. Seriously, this is cool and all, and I won't begrudge anybody their workarounds or effort-savers, but I just don't find it that interesting when what is ostensibly a distinct OS is actually just a user process on an entirely different and unrelated OS. And I
especially don't get it when people act like this is a good end-goal, rather than just an acceptable workaround. (Points to AROS for at least having some native versions, though.)
