Is AROS not similar to what EmuTOS is?

• cmrdporcupine 10y ago
  It looks somewhat similar, though I don't get the impression that AROS is aiming to be a 100% compatible native OS like EmuTOS is? It looks like AROS has aimed to be a kind of next-generation Amiga OS for new hardware platforms?

    AROS is a bit of both. It runs native on a bunch of hardware, including x86, PPC, ARM. It also runs "hosted" on several OSs, with Linux the most common, where it takes advantage of the host OS filesystem and drivers. But it can also run, for some values of run, on real Amiga hardware. With the caveat that it's a bit heavier than original AmigaOS. It has a lot of additional features, but also lacks some parts of the original still.
