Yeah, I wish the MorphOS team and MorphOS developers would stop focusing on dead-end hardware.  Firewire was never a big deal and it fell into even greater obscurity after USB2.0  became widespread.  MorphOS would be better served by having better driver support for video cards and USB2.0.  Or even better, port the OS to an architecture that isn't a dead-end.

I appreciate that you have an opinion, but consider the possibility that that's all it is - your opinion.
While I'm sure that there are some that would agree with you, I'm not one of them.
If you want an X86 Amiga like OS, use AROS. The MorphOS development team has repeatedly stated that for the foreseeable future they're staying with PPC systems and not considering a port to X86 architecture.

If PPCs are dead why are Applied Micro and Freescale still developing new processors? Yes PCs have moved on from these processors, but I like having something different.

Right now, the only thing that really differentiates Apple desktops is their OS and I don't care for it.

MorphOS developers may listen to  your opinion, but in the end they're going to continue to advance in the same direction they always have - focused on what they'd like to see in new releases.
You don't have to use or pay for the OS. Don't like it? Don't use it.
