"1) No viruses ever on my computer"

Neither on Linux or OSX :P

"2) No more stupid malware"

Same as above :)

"3) Faster speed boot time and response time to applications"

What applications?

"4) save in my electric bill as I am using 400+watt power supply but the SAM 460 need only 100 watt to run. Saving a lot in heat and energy."

You can also buy low consuming x86 motherboards which are way more powerful and useful than a SAM460 at a fraction of the price.

If maybe you said "I want to buy a SAM460 because it will let me run Amiga OS4.1" I would understand (albeit at a very expensive price), but none of the reasons you mentioned warrant spending 1000+ Euro.

Just in my very humble opinion of course. =D

AmigaClassicsRule have you considered the upcoming Arcade FPGA =) - you can put a real 060 on it.
