today amiga is a pc.
we can like it or not, but it's a pc.
30 years ago it was a mc68k based computer.
the main peculiarity of the "30 years ago amiga" was its custom chips.
30 years are passed and no one develops hardware that way, except console producers.
why? because people buys it anyway and it's cheap to develop.
think to the x1000 or the sam boards: they're pcs too. yes, they have ppc cpus and not intel compatible ones, but they're pcs.
why? because as before they're cheaper to produce than reinventing something new again.
why don't we like amiga sticker on pc case? because we've lived our last 30 years thinking to the past, living in the past. i say it once again: no more goonies, roanald reagan or nwobhm. 80s are ended.
Now we can like a ppc pc board and install our os4 or old mac and use morphos and it's totally good! What we have to understand is that world has gone beyond our "custom chipset" or "draggable screens". And if someone buys or has a licence to do it (respecting copyrights or trademarks), he can call every machine he has amiga, tandy, dragon1000, spectrum, hal9000 or whatever he likes!
