Both AmigaOS 4 & MorphOS both require obsolete hardware to run.
 
Running a PPC emulator on X64 is the best solution. It won't be long before someone emulates the Mac's that MorphOS runs on.
Anyone tried PearPC?

Watching the arguments about what is Emulation and what isn't, reminds me of the old RISC vs CISC arguments. :lol:

There really isn't a RISC/CISC dichotomy anymore, modern designs have features of both :)

As alluded to earlier in the thread, once we started hitting drivers rather than the actual hardware... The emulation line starts to blur... Modern CPUs "emulate" the ISAs of earlier devices... It's all irrelevant, now... All tht matters is wether your software will run or not.
