How much would it cost to port AmigaOS to x64?

[OlafS3]

there are combinations of Aros and Linux in development. So most hardware will be supported in a couple of months.

thanks for the link. I read something similar from the Friedens.

My short comment: BeOS (and OS/2) did not fail because of the hardware but because of not enough software. And that would not have been different under another hardware (f.e. PPC).

Better than nothing :-)

I bought my first PC (8 MB!) with OS/2 and saw it failing not because of the product (it was better than Windows at the time) but because of no software.

But again every OS (whatever hardware it uses) competes with all other platforms for users and developers. And avoiding to use the same hardware does not change this.
