All right, at the risk of being the first troll in this thread... is anyone else concerned about the fact that this still keeps AmigaOS stuck on PPC processors?

Don't get me wrong, good news, glad to hear it, but as far as I know, PPC still has an expensive and possibly limited future.

I wish 'em well, and am glad they finally got the hint about affordable hardware, just wondering about the long term implications.


I know what you mean, I was hoping for a switch to ARM, but do they have the man power to do that kind of switch? I'm not even sure Amiga is a full time venture at Hyperion, they'd probably have other work to keep money coming in.

That said, a cute affordable Amiga laptop/netbook gets my vote. If it can run legacy applications at a decent rate.
