*NIX underpinnings, OS3.9 mostly... Sounds like Amithlon.

While I think the Amiga is a great platform as well, I think it's future is also going to be based on some *NIX underpinnings. Heck, we could right now write a GUI that acted and felt like our Amiga (most likely looking like OS 3.9 mostly) and put our GUI ontop of FreeBSD which is modified for our purposes (eg Darwin) and we have a modern AmigaOS. This is my grand vision for this beloved platform... combine that with high end hardware and a good base of developers and you have a MS killer.
