OS4 on PS3

[Lando]

PS3 hard drives ship with Linux preinstalled.  The Linux port  was done by a combined force of Sony, Toshiba and IBM engineers.

I'm just not sure that SCEI would want to pay Amiga Inc lots of money and add $100 onto the cost of every PS3 HDD sold for the 'Amiga' sticker plus another $70 for the OS, and then wait 5 years for Hyperion to get a '90% complete pre-release' OS4 port done, so that users can experience the thrills of web browsing in iBrowse and writing letters in AmigaWriter.

I can't even believe someone went ahead and made that poll, unless it was intended as humour?

Much better than the solutions you implied - AROS - useless OS with no software; MorphOS - underdeveloped and dead OS with no new software either.

MorphOS isn't dead.  There have been several updates in the past year, including the long-awaited native TCP/IP stack, updates to the USB stack, the release of the free PowerUP version along with two updates for it, the MorphOS 3D package with OpenGL compatible API and Goa Warp3D wrapper (that is faster than the original on the same hardware), the latest Ambient update (released on 12th March).

That's just off the top of my head.  And development is ongoing.

It's also home to the only (as far as I know) working KHTML-based browser for any Amiga-like platform.
