AROS: AEROS for Raspberry Pi, free beta version 1 / AresOne 2k13
As announced, under the title link a free download version of the AEROS-distribution for the Raspberry Pi is available. Compared with the version on the SD-card it is a light version, Linux applications cannot be started with the LX-command out of AROS. Besides, the system files of this distribution are about two months older than the ones of the support-version which can be purchased.

OS4 Linux: Provider installs AROS optionally (Update)
According to PC OpenSystems LLC (the company behind OS4 Linux - amiga-news.de reported) under the title link, from monday on all purchasers of hardware can get AROS installed without extra charge - at first as guest operating system under VirtualBox and later, if the computer will be completely supported by AROS, as second boot option as well.

But the prices of the computers are not low which can be demonstrated with this example of an HP-Pavilion-23-system called "Indigo Desktop" by the OS4Store: with AMD-A4-Prozessor, 4 GB RAM and 500-GB harddrive, it costs 1100 US-Dollar. The producer itself sells an upgraded model for 700 Dollar.

Update: (18:34, 30.06.13, snx)
Meanwhile a list of additional plans and suggestions with regard to the Amiga has been published by Roberto Dohnert. (snx) (Translation: dr)
