In reply to Comment 4 (Neko):
I run AROS on VirtualPC (WinXP).

It works great (faster than Win98/2000) on VPC!

It supports the following modes:

AROS VBE 640x480 16bpp
AROS VBE 800x600 16bpp
AROS VBE 1024x768 16bpp
AROS VBE 640x480 32bpp
AROS VBE 800x600 32bpp
AROS VBE 1024x768 32bpp
AROS VGA 640x480 4bpp
AROS VMWare

I run it at AROS VBE 1024x768 32bpp

Only problems I have is the OS pauses every few seconds when
I have booted from the CD image.

Does not pause when booting from the floppy image.

Hopeing that someday AROS will be funcional enough for me to dedicate
a real machine to run it full time.

For this to happen it needs:
1. Networking (internet)
2. Internet browser
3. Ability to boot from hard disk
