From what I understand:
The problem with supporting BPPC isn't the BPPC itself anymore. I think Hyperion knows most of the quirks and bugs by now. It's more a case of supporting all the odd A1200 configurations. Would you upgrade to AOS4 if it meant throwing out half your tower? I didn't think so :-)
But I guess it pretty much depends on how many drivers can be ported and how many can run emulated. The problem is those who can neither.
