Running AmigaOS on a PC (The Proper Way)

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the with-a-pinch-of-salt dept.

AmiLover writes: "OSNews is running a review of AmigaXL, a system that allows you to boot AmigaOS on your PC in a way that resembles a regular-booting x86 operating system. Screenshots accompany the article show the latest version of AmigaOS 3.9 running on a Compaq laptop. With AmigaOS 4.0 coming out in March with lots of new features (antialias fonts, better memory protection etc) is AmigaXL the one true future of Amiga, a future that AmigaDE, QNX and Gateway failed to materialize through their involvement with AmigaOS?"

    Funny how about 500 moderations NEVER HAPPENED. There were over 750 moderations on this post. They just fucking dissappeared! I guess they were moderations done by the UNPEOPLE, that you erased from the moderation system.
