Claiming that OS4 would run on the Shark without major modifications
Perhaps, but all they claimed was that the SharkPPC will only be be launched into the market AFTER OS4.0 has been released. It may in fact need to be modified, they never stated that it would not need to be. Also, it's quite possible the SharkPPC has not been finalized, nor does it need to be until they are ready to commit to a production launch. If I was them, I'd wait until OS4.0 saw the light of day before investing more money into it. It's no big deal really, and I'm not sure why you're making it into one.

The only thing I'd be interested in the SharkPPC PCI card would be if it were possible to stick it into an Intel machine and have it boot up AmigaOS4. That would be cool, and should be possible. Of course the OS would need to be specially modified, or perhaps have a special boot loader, but, whatever...  It would be cool to have a PCI PPC Amiga card for my PC.
