I futzed around with AROS a year or so ago, and even played with it in 2005 on a hosted Slackware, if memory serves. The installation process was highly confusing. No doubt it works for the developers, but for those that just want to kick the tyres, it could be a lot friendlier.
Small tweaks to their website would help. In the main menu they have "Aros-Exec". The should call it "Forums", because that's what they are. "Archives" would better be called "Software", or "Packages". Sometimes tiny things can mean a lot.
There seems to be an active community for software uploads, which is nice to see.
