The thing is that with computers software is everything. Who cares about the actual HW underneath as long as it's fast enough and bugfree?


Question: if MorphOS development had started today (not x years ago) - or maybe put differently: if cpu situation when MorphOS development started back then would have been as it is now - which CPU family would in your opinion have been the best choice?

Assuming that there would be no backwards compatibility issues to consider, clearly x86 (or x86-64 probably).


In recent times (months?) I think to have noted "indications" that several other people from MorphOS team might have similiar opinion. Might that be so?
