Paolo Besser is a long-standing editor of The Games Machine, the oldest, still running printed magazine about video games all over Europe. They started their career with their Commodore 16, 128 and Amigas back in the 80s. Since 2010, they’ve been working as Windows and VMware system administrator. Icaros Desktop is a project they work on their own, in their spare time, choosing the right AROS software and making it interact in a transparent and sometimes creative way. Creating a distribution can be trivial, but keeping it updated is a highly time consuming effort. Icaros Desktop has grown older than 10 years. With countless nights working on it. They’re doing their best, and all they can do, to make the best of AROS and provide the most amazing Amiga-like experience, at an unbeatable price ($0). They’ve always been an active donor to AROS related projects as well. But they just can’t keep this going all by themselves: monthly bills and expenses are rising, and the more they work to pay them, the less spare time they have for Icaros Desktop.
