Re; OS5 talk.
I'm happy Ainc have been forward-thinking enough not to let everything lie with Hyperion and OS4. Though the OS5 talk sounds very premature, its nice to know theres one -official- possible future beyond PPC under way.
Ive always felt the host hardware is irrelevant, so long as its powerful and affordable, I could care less what architecture is printed on the silicon.
Having said that, when and if we ever see OS5, it will be interesting to see if a -commercial- Amiga based OS is of any real value compared to all the other -free- alternatives to Windows?
Most people who were going to have already made the switch to Linux and settled in with it, they won't neccessarily want to switch-back to a closed commercial OS.
