Will Apple allow Hyperion access to all the documents needed to write the drivers (or the HAL) for that machine?


When hell freezes over.

However, *maybe* taking a look at the Mac Linux kernel sources could be of help, but I seriously doubt this since they would still have the problem with ensuring the customer of interoperability with the hardware and we would also have the question of who the customer would turn to when running into hardware problems while running AmigaOS4. It's simply not feasible for a professional OS vendor to make official support for hardware they cannot guarantee interoperability with. We should also remember that this hardware is bundled with MacOSX, how many users are seriously willing to pay for another OS when their hardware already has one preinstalled?

The idea to clone their hardware and bundle it with AmigaOS4 is simply a so much better solution to the problem, don't you think? :-P
