>You're blaming BeOS's failure on the BeBox? Every release of BeOS that was marked as a "full release" (as opposed to a developer preview or a "preview release") could run on Intel hardware, and the BeBox itself was discontinued long before then.
Okay, that's fair - BeOS was a bad example. Let's say AmigaOS then, which largely seems to be limited to Amiga hardware. (Though amazingly it still seems to be maintained?)
Depends on who you ask, I think. I'm not into Amiga stuff or that knowledgeable, but I understand AROS is essentially Amiga 3 implemented on x86/ARM/PPC/M68K. However, it's not seen as being "Amiga" because it doesn't primarily run on "real Amiga hardware"?
