Again, Why didn't they port Amiga OS?

[AmiGR]

That "halfass" company was there for 10 years, making addons for the Amiga and Mac. They produced a fully
working (yet kludgy) solution. There were about 10000
boards sold according to Phase5 iirc.

Nobody lied. It is a very sensible number if you keep in mind that the first boards were made in 1997.
There *were* many Amigans back then. There are boards still in circulations, many dead boards (mostly
BlizzardPPC boards, due to the complexity of the board it's "easy" to kill it). Almost all the Greek Amiga users I
know still have PPC boards. Example is one who killed his board (a wierd story... He was fixing his tower and
accidently pulled a cap with it's trace.) and managed to find another board quite quickly. Also consider that both AmigaOS4 and MorphOS started their development cycle on these boards.

Nice comment, I agree with most of it but there is a little problem in part of it. The endian issues are not that simple. The PPC *can* work in both modes, the x86 can't. On a little endian machine, you wouldn't be able to integrate native and emulated libraries the way it is done in MOS and OS4 right now, ie. you can just drop a 68k lib and it works in both 68k and PPC apps, without using endianess switching everywhere. All legacy code is big endian while native x86 code is little endian.
To everyone else: Don't start lecturing people about x86 hardware, most of us *ARE* PC users apart from Amiga users. I might only have a Pegasos here (running Linux at the moment, for Uni stuff) but I've got 3 PCs back home, all of which built by myself.
