IMHO Arm would have been the better option than PPC. As Palm showed, the migration from 68k to ARM could have been very easy. Very cheap computers would be indeed a niche for the Amiga-platform, much better than slowing it down by Linux. Bill Buck is already convinced about Arm. But who will convince Amiga, Inc and Hyperion? If not, such a Freescale notebook running a Morphos 3.0 or an improved Aros would be very nice.
I agree, but in 1996 when the decision was taken to go PPC... the ARM was hardly a realistic choice... and we were stuck in the middle of Phase5's Macintosh politics...
By 2001, when OS4 was started... the both the ARM and the x86 were much more desirable than the PPC...
