Yes that's what I meant, which is why I think it's good. It means we
get to carry on using AmigaOS, with all its benefits without either
running the DE (alone) native or hosted on whatever platform you
choose.
We therefore get our favourite OS running on modern hardware and all
greatness of the DE too. Sure, it's a shame that you won't be
running AmigaOS under Windows which in theory you could
do if they coded AmigaOS to run under the DE rather than a specific
hardware architecture, however for Amiga owners who invest in AmigaOne
being able to run a super-duper version of the classic OS is a massive
bonus.
