What does AROS stand for? A-Real-Operating-System?by Pete (Login The-Universe)R Well if so, Micro$oft probably will never steal it... but if they did, I'm sure it would quickly become known as: A-Retarded-Operating-System... Oops, wait, that one's already on the market, it's called Vista. Galleon, I feel for your pain, at least in the way that personally it drives me a little bonkers to just get my QB programs to run in 9x through Vista the same way. I believe FB has encountered oodles (hey, there's a fun word to say... oodles) of problems trying to make FB fit every OS. Just a guess. Anyway, I'm really impressed with how Galleon has thought through the big-picture with this project; so, who knows, it might be able to be used in other OS's more than Linux and MacOS, which it is already targeted to work with, sometime in the future.
