Short: Icaros Desktop Manual Author: Paolo Besser Uploader: Carsten Larsen (carsten larsen mail com) Type: docs/misc Version: 2.2.8 Architecture: Generic URL: http://vmwaros.blogspot.com Icaros Desktop is an Amiga-like operating system for the PC platform, with a full desktop environment, distributed on a bootable media. It's based on AROS, a lightweight, efficient and flexible open-source operating system, aiming at being compatible with AmigaOS 3 at the API level, while improving on it in many areas. Icaros Desktop runs native AROS applications but also the original Amiga ones under emulation, transparently integrating them onto its desktop.
