OS4 is even based on the 3.1 source code… And finally, 3.9 came out over 20 years ago and is a superset of the 3.1 API, and newer versions of AmigaOS both on 68k (OS3.2) and PPC (OS4) implement this API too. ![]() Besides that, while AROS does indeed run on 68k, it’s still pretty lacking there, and while the most accomplished branch is on x86, it lacks the integrated compatibility with 68k software that both OS4 and MorphOS use to great effect.Īnd, of course you realise that AmigaOS has moved on since 3.1, so while compatibility with 3.1 is all well and good, it doesn’t make AROS any more “Amiga” than OS4 or MOS, since they’re not only based on the 3.1 API, but also provide binary compatibility with it, something MorphOS cannot do on x86. ![]() Simply running on 68k doesn’t make it AmigaOS, otherwise Linux would be AmigaOS too. The whole point of AROS is that it’s *not* a true AmigaOS, just like how ReactOS isn’t a true Windows.
