Well, what I don't understand (and don't get this wrong, I appreciate the effort), if a "free" solution is what we want, why is AROS not there yet? It supports x86 (a main stream HW), is not bound to any licensing scheme, has tons of developers (thru open source) and is in development longer than AmigaO4.


Probably because AmigaOS is worth $#|? these days... but probably the right answer would be, without developers that knows how AmigaOS behave from inside out jumping a board it will take quite a long time until AROS came to the usability levels present in either AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS... you see, being on x86 doesn't do miracles.. because miracles only hyperion does them instantaneously, impossible take a litle longer
