What's "blacktroll"?

A new banner can be seen in the banner circulation here on amiga.org. It leads to http://www.blacktroll.com. Any ideas what this might be? Perhaps something to do with this AROS picture ;-)? Any other ideas?

@ Ryu and others

Thanks! :-)

Exciting to see what Dammy might come up with here. It has to be something special to stand out of the cut-throat price competition on the x86 market, right ...?

I hope this is only meant for developers?? I cant see what use regular people would have of Aros yet... It will atleast need a tcp/ip stack, browser, mail and so on before they start selling preinstalled systems..
As it is right now, you really cannot use it for much, but hopefully that change in future..

Yes. If there had only been some good 68k emulation (JIT preferrably), then they would have had a flying start with many legacy Amiga applications, just like MorphOS. To be honest, MorphOS had been quite boring without programs like MiamiDX, IBrowse, and lots of other apps. Sure, new and native applications may be developed as time goes by (as we see on MorphOS), but the legacy apps has really been a seesaw that helped MorphOS to take off, and it could have been the same for AROS.
