I think AmigaOS and it's variants/derivatives could find a niche in the settopbox market easily. I was checking linux sat receivers the other day and was shocket to see that 3rd party images and even native ones of various receivers have a boot time of 30 seconds!! And on time critical apps like erm.... cardsharing:) some even manage to fail when running just a few at the same time. The reason seems to be that all these are time critical applications. Guess which OS was very good at time critical stuff like analog video genlocking and stuff...
Just my lame opinion anyway.. :lol:
