Experimental but Usable

AROS is not considered a HOME for ex Amigaians. Well, i dont believe so anyway. Most people considered a fun experimiental OS.

I considere it something i would like to look at. But as far as the Amiga Future looks, i'd say that would have to be AmigaOS4 and future platforms from Amiga Inc.

AROS is simple a very very cool OS project. Extra cool for those who like AmigaOS.

These guys have dont a lot of great work, but if people are looking at this for a Desktop OS. They might wanna come back after 2 years or so. There still needs to be Apps developed for it and there still is no good userbase.

Its pretty much ATM, an experimental OS that has some very interesting aspects.
