AROS is a true clone

AROS is not an AmigaOS inspired OS as that is not the point, you may as well use BeOS.
AROS is a true clone. If you compiled AROS for the 68K it would run normal Amiga classic apps with no problems.

Sure we aare including many of the tried and test improvements which Amiga users have been hacking into AmigaOS for years, but we include them as part of the OS and not as hacks.

As for 68k emu, UAE works fine in AROS, we hope to make it a little more transparent... in a similar vein to MacOS9 on MacOSX.

Thanks
