So... in lieu of starting a new thread...

I burned a Live cd of Aros and played with it for a few minutes.  There are parts that seem linuxy and parts that seem miggy.  Don't know how good a wireless support it has, never bothered to try and make it work.  Those of you who run it, how does it stack up?  Say, all a fella wanted to do was surf the web, d/l email, print boring writing assignments on a decrepit HP Laserjet 5 and maybe fart around with wine.  Does it have wine?  I guess what I'm on about is is it robust enough for daily use or more of a fun novelty?

I just figured it might be fun to run on this old P4 since I'm pretty much done with Xp on it (bad non-updated drivers cause BSOD with SP3 and that's the only copy I have) and have just been mainly running web browser and E-UAE on this xubuntu install.  Hmm...  I might have to give it a go here soon.
