AROS Mentioned

AROS gets mentioned on informit.com.

Pity this article didn't come out in a couple more months when x86_64 with memory protection is out...

No matter how much I like AROS, the lack of memory protection is a definitely a bad thing.

Keep an eye here for updates.  :-D

Rumours say MP is coming?

AFAIK, for even being able to boot at 64bit native kernel on a AMD64 requires MMU support.  From what I've been told, AROS64's memory protection is going to be compariable to OS4's MP.  I've been begging for RT support in the kernel for future RT kernel modules, so I have alot of hopes on AROS64, as you probably have guessed.  Loadable kernel modules, hmmmm good!  :cheers: to Doc!

AROS64 Bounty

Why not just dump backward compatibility for the 64bit version and actually try to make a modern Amiga-like with modern features? That is what is really needed.

Source compatibility seems stupid when no-one is ever going to port anything over anyway.

If someone ever completes the EUAE Integration bounty, there would be alot of wisdom in your words.  I can see from the start, there is going to be additional API beyond AOS3.1.  But I'll let be up to the Doc to run with.
