| Kudos to you and everyone involved with AROS development. AROS has made significant progress over the last couple years.

| Has there ever been any dialog between Hyperion and the AROS camp? It's difficult for me to fathom why these two groups aren't cooperating. |

So many reasons, the most reasonable being:
AmigaOS is closed source and Hyperion wish that it remains so.
Integrating components of AROS which are open source within AmigaOS would likely require AmigaOS to be fully open sourced as well due to GPL restrictions.
AmigaOS, from the classic days, likely contains IP from other individuals and companies, so it could probably never be open sourced anyway.
Oh well, competition is always good. It keeps everyone on their toes.
AROS continues to go from strength to strength and basing a computer solely around AROS shows that it is ready to become a serious contender in the market space.
Congratulations Stephen, on this milestone. You da man!!! 
This Imica looks absolutely gorgeous. 
I love how you can tuck it away behind the monitor.
I wish I had known about it before. I'll definitely be talking to people about this.
So, do you intend to boot AROS off USB, or off an SD Card, or CF reader?
I just had a crazy thought, does it have composite out? You could tuck it behind a classic monitor and just about believe you've upgraded your classic Amiga.
It's soooo small you could just about tuck it inside a broken classic!!!

FYI: AROS is licensed under AROS Public License, not GPL. APL allows integration with prioprietary systems without the need of said system to become open source. We do have a small number of LGPL components (AHI and AROSTCP afaik), but LGPL does not require open sourcing the prioprietary systems likes GPL does.Last edited by deadwood on 22-May-2010 at 09:20 AM.

Apart from the fact that not everything that it's open source is GPLed, as in this case you would be right. OSX uses open source parts, MorphOS itself uses parts of AROS, so there's actually no problem using those parts and close them or even keep them open while rest remain closed.

| @All
Thanks for great and supportive comments, this has been a learning journey but the key thing has become SILENCE, and NATIVE.
I am designing a riser to put the top and bottom to fit a Catweasel, DVD, floppy drive but need to check costing.
This will be again be silent, if you buy the SSD drive for it, but also it is 12v, can be fitted into a car
Also if you have the Catweasel you can use a joystick, mouse and Amiga keyboard.
All in all a nice little computer.
However, if you want an Aros powerhouse, then AresOne will be your machine. Between the two of us I believe the choices are there.
