Most Amiga like experience on modern hardware

[dammy]

CUSA HW has Amiga in name, nothing else.
PPC Amiga HW can run  real AOS, that has become PPC native.
Thats the main difference, IMHO.

There is no real reason to spend that much money on a OS4 PPC system and get so little for the money.  There are cheap used Macs that will run MOS.  AROS will run on the new Commodore Amiga systems as well as any x86 system and it's free.  Going x86 route, that leaves him the option to multi-boot into main stream OSs as well as having an Amiga like environment which he really won't have as an option going PPC.

If person already owns compatible x86, sure, one should try AROS.
If person owns compatible PPC Mac HW, sure, on should try MOS.

Getting AROS system from 0 costs perhaps 300eur. (new or partially new HW)
Getting to MOS from 0 costs perhaps 400eur. (used HW)
Getting AOS4 system costs perhaps about 1000eur. (new HW)
So, yes, AOS4 experience is pricey for now.

But if one really wants to try & use "AOS" on above 100Mhz HW natively, only PPC Amigas can do it. That's the reason why I have SAM. I want to see where AOS is and where it goes.

Via UAE you can achieve running AOS on multi GHz level.  If you are referring to the AmigaOne series, they are not an Amiga nor Commodore Amiga, just AmigaOne and nothing else.

Yes, but it's not native. Only emulation on top of some other OS.

The only thing that runs AOS natively on is a 68K Amiga, everything else has emulation/translation layer which isn't native by a long shot.

>If you are referring to the AmigaOne series, they are not an Amiga nor Commodore Amiga, just AmigaOne and nothing else.

By "PPC Amigas" I meant ClassicPPC, Pergasos2, AmigaOne, SAM. HW that are capable of running AmigaOS above 100Mhz natively.
(I could not care less about the actual name of the HW.)

Does that mean I should also be able to label AROS as AmigaOS if I can care less about the actual name of the OS?  

Now show us a video of you DBANing the AmigaOne Drive(s) and just installing WB 3.9 floppies and  then boot it into WB 3.9 and then I will concede it's running 68K software natively.

So, you are not aware that AmigaOS has been ported to PPC. LOL!

Exactly what WB 3.x source code was ported?
