In response to the the state of things and using PPC because of past decisions; it is what it is. AmigaOS is still developed BeOS isn't. PPC chips are available and new machines are being designed and made so it is a win of sorts. Would Amiga companies make Amiga hardware if Hyperion supported x86/x64? No. Would there be any money left to fund the AmiStore and 'Amiga' software development? No. Could this change in the future? Probably.
