It's interesting the way Amiga is going at this moment: rather like (in evolutionary terms)
emergence (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence)
We have an Open Source Amiga OS clone (AROS)...
... and development of hardware at the processor level by an individual rather than a company (MiniMig)...
... and now a proposal for an open(?) platform, also beginning from a fundamental hardware level.
Thinking, not of now, but of future possibilities: imagine not just having an operating system to play with and customize, but the underlying hardware too! And Open Source hardware can evolve and improve along with the software.
This is
way beyond the ambitions of any other project such as Linux.
And, oddly enough somehow, it seems in keeping with the original 'spirit of Amiga'...
