This interview with OS4 developers reads like something from another universe! An oldie but goodie especially if you've never seen it before:

I wonder if the interviewees got to pick their text colors.

So I guess this fell apart when H&P realised there wasn't a "entire-os-for-ppc.library" avalable on aminet?

looks like this was before H&P decide to go to X86 with AOS and want sell amithlon and amiga xl
but later when Hyperion offer ainc a pay per Hardware sell, then of course ainc can get more money with PPC per sell OS.

But i dont understand what "some more AAA titles to the Amiga world" mean.what is AAA ?
I think this is also possible with the PPC way Hyperion do.

here is more from the Text i mean.

Hyperion: Hyperion Entertainment will port MesaGL 3.4.1 to AmigaOS4 and we will also provide the 3D API and drivers for the Voodoo3 and Matrox G450 graphics boards. Advanced 3D drivers which make use of all the features of modern graphics cards are key to the success of Amiga OS.
Key staff-members of Hyperion also serve as technology consultants to Amiga on OS 4.x and OS 5.
As a consequence, we'll be able to port our existing games and to bring some more AAA titles to the Amiga world.

probably means modern PC games. Mordern for 1999/2000, anyway.
