Again, Why didn't they port Amiga OS?

[itix]

yeah and I've ALWAYS (even tho I own a PPC+Bvision) wondered WHY they went for the dodgie cache flushing context switching 68k/PPC  when they could have saved money + buyer cost + a faster board by having just a PPC chip with a 68k emulator?

That is pretty much MorphOS now.

But just 68k emulator is not adequate. Emulating 68k on BPPC with static emulator is pretty slow and without PPC native OS even worse (emulated gfx, mui, ahi...? no way).

10,000? Somebody lied. If they HAD sold 10,000 there would still be 10,000 in circulation.

You just don't see those p5 boards circulating anywhere because users are simply gone!

Remember boards were sold 6 years ago. Many many boards are collecting dust now or died due to old age. 10000 is quite reasonable (I recall it was much more than 10000) when comparing to OS3.5/3.9 sales (3.9 sold 15000 copies in 1999 still).
