OS Enhancement Pack for 68K users - market demand?

[Kronos]

Quick reality check, part 1:

I'll bet everyone that by the end of 2004, there will still be more people using OS3.x (on 68k,
UAE or Amithlon) than OS4.

And yes I mean "using", not just "insert favourite adf-file".

Lots of these people are willing to buy SW, and atleast those who use Amithlon (well
most of them) have prooven that they spend money on SW.

Reality check part 2:

IBrowse2.3 IS 68k and will remain so (till 3.0 is released).
RoadShow is planned to be sold as 68k.
ReAction isn't really widely used, no big loss.
MUI-68k will probraly remain on the same state as the OS4-version.
HDToolBox does the job, no need for that other proggi.
The "optional" MP in OS4 won't be usefull anytime soon.
VM is not needed when you run UAE, and a 1GB Amithlon-sys ought to be enough.
ExecSG and Petunia are completly unusable with those systems.
The rest of the features is either
a) eye-candy,
b) can be replaced from Aminet
c) isn't really that important
d) all of the above.

Just look around here, and you will find plenty of user asking questions about "real" SW
that still use something like a 030 (yuk).

There are also plenty of user who see 0 sense in spending >1000 Euro (you know board,
RAM,HD,case, taxes ...) for something that WILL be slower than their current Amiga (emu).

And yes Steffen these are a big part of the " market", just not for ports of vintage
PC-games at full price.

@jeffimix

a) it is "Kronos" and the "K" is there for a reason.

b) you got it all wrong....


What I wanted to say was that people running Amithlon or UAE allready have a faster
Amiga (running 68k) than any PPC available for "us" in the forseeable future, even if that
PPC is running native SW.

Those could be a market for an 68k-OS-update.
