People should stop being so critical and take (or ignore, I guess) what's on the way. It's such a thin thread, the continuation of AmigaOS 4 and new hardware. I've owned several Amiga 1000s, 2000s, 1200s, and a SAM 440ep-Flex. I will buy a Tabor. I already have the case.

I think it was a mistake to go PPC way back when. What I would best like to see is a quality emulation layer inserted such that next OS4 ver could run on Intel, and then see a slow conversion of emulated parts to native --- exactly what happened w/ Mac going from MC68K to PPC. It took a LONG time. Many years. But things were always fast. Performance was good. I'd like to see a freeze on features after next OS release and an Intel shift.

MorphOS and AROS are not AmigaOS. IMHO they fracture the tiny bubble that is the AmigaOS experience. I have no desire to run those operating systems. I want to use a modern "Amiga."

Intel switch or not, I'd prefer if "Amiga" users stuck to AmigaOS vs. the aforementioned. It would strengthen things and that's what's needed. My $.02.
