Boy let's see the PS3 has been further delayed making the idea it will show up in limited quantity for the next holiday season a distinct possibility. Furthermore, that processor is designed for a Video Game, adapting an OS like the Amiga to it would be a considerable amount of time and work for it.
Several Questions:
A) would Sony even want it for their game machine? Seems to me something like that might cause them to loose their proprietary control of their user base. The only reason Linux hit the PS2 briefly (it was discontinued) is it was the basis for the game developers. Sony thought it was a bad idea and discontinued it.
B)Why do you think you can wrap an OS like AmigaOS around a game system and make it popular.. People buy consoles to play games. To bad the PowerPC life is ending, but the Cell really isn't in a general purpose CPU or box and it's not produced in quantity to be so. So my question is how successful do you think it could really end up being. Probably less than a dedicated custom PowerPC motherboard based machine would be.
Why not just get behind AROS. It's latest version runs great and supports network cards etc. And you can run it on generic cheaply available hardware. There is no reason not to. Aros is embracing ports to all available hardware including PowerPC so why not support something that is supported by your community.
