    Hi,
    Here's an Amiga fan who installed Commodore OS Vision V3.1 on a VCS... *CommodorerCOs Weirdest OS Is Back For 2026*

    I installed the brand new Commodore OS Vision V3.1 on an Atari VCS,
    and it turned out to be far more interesting than I expected. I had
    previously written it off as just Linux with Compiz turned on and a
    Commodore theme over the top, but after spending some time with it,
    there is clearly a lot more work here than I expected. From the C64-
    style boot menu and retro desktop effects to built-in Commodore 64,
    Plus/4 and Amiga emulation, Commoserve, BASIC tools, pixel art software
    and SID music creation, this is a genuinely impressive effort!
    So the VCS is an Atari computer. Why don't Atari users have a GNU/Linux distribution with a native DR/GEM to run Atari applications and
    emulators on a dedicated system that could be hosted by the Atari VCS?
    That could be interesting :-)
