The future of AmigaOS is x86.

I have always felt whenever I have used Workbench 3.1 that why must the OS be locked down to specific hardware. WB is to nice to be locked to a 600 dollar motherboards or classic amigas with 300 dollar turbo boards.

Think about it. If WB 3.1 was x86 I could probably run it reasonably well on my old 486 (ie a 486 is about the same speed as a 040).
