It is the AROS spoon!

While to me the Classic Amiga hardware will always be in my future, I voted for the FPGA 68K hardware + OS3.x , as I think this is what the Natami is going to be and would suit me the best personally, I'd really like to see that project reach fruition...

I'd also like to see all the others succeed too, except of course the last option as the Amiga will never die...

we're all doomed

adz you should be ashamed of yourself

tsk tsk tsk tsk *waves finger*

I would like to see Morthos combined with AROS

The Projects have shared code already.

Matthew, your choice of answer has shocked me!

I expected "FPGA 68k hardware + AROS68k" or "x86 hardware + AROS" from you.

I can't really participate in this vote as I think it should have been a multiple choice one. The community has gone in several different directions and I don't think there'll ever be a "sole survivor", nor does there deserve to be. Whilst it was still in production, the amiga was a lot of different things to a lot of different people. Now that it's not and people have taken steps to continue it's legacy in the direction they think is the right one, no one option is ever going to please everybody again.

Just assume that Darwinian laws apply to the options in this poll and eventually only the strongest one will survive. Then pick one.

FPGA 68k + AROS68k will be for the retro dudes... X86 + AROS will be for the die hard nerds that want Amiga + grunt... But realistically the average Joe is going to want a free emulator they can run on their desktop, and have a little nostalgia trip once in a while

While it's not the answer I would dream of, it's the most realistic from my perspective.

Agree, this should have been a multichoise poll :-) Though AROS likely playing a part in the OS part of the options .. X86 hardware, FPGA, and the Classic computers likely living their life out being well used as well.. Was there ever computers used for as long as Commodores ?? :-D They must have beat the records for any computers being used to death now !
