When Genesi cease trading or lose interest, and your machine dies, what do you do then? Seems to me you have a pretty doorstop.
Genesi has absolutely nothing to do with MorphOS licensing.

If the MorphOS Team would for some reason totally quit some day (I don't see that happening anytime soon) I'd imagine we'd release the MorphOS free for all then.

What's the issue with the old Amigs software running on it? Is it unstable?
No issue really, except when you try some old apps. Often it's hard to tell beforehand if some app will play ball or not. If it doesn't you might need to reboot.

While most apps don't hit the amiga hw directly, some do.

It's fun sport btw... trying to find the oldest apps that run ok. I've ran some from 86 or so. :)
