I can't say I'm surprised people don't know about those--I barely know of them, myself (like, where to get one, etc.). I understand enough that not one of those things mentioned is a full-fledged computer, but instead is either a motherboard or a card that goes into some slot; and that all are 'classic' (if that) in nature, and not a piece of it with a CPU that is AMD or Intel.
As far as steps to be taken, including advertising, etc., I won't offer any until I see on the Amiga Inc. website a press release that "Amiga will now be put on x86-64 CPUs" and run on CPUs by AMD and Intel. Til then, what's the point? (beyond this, I have extremely hostile words) :-D
Why do you want to go for the SECOND most popular 32-bit processor group? I say, go ARM, the single most popular CPU family on the planet (over 10 billion so far). I'll always prefer MIPS, but got to face the world as it is now. x86 is a monopoly, and unless your initials are MSFT or you have millions of man-hours to dedicate to OS development, you don't have access to the party. ARM has dozens of chip vendors, dozens of OS's, lots of options, lot more flexibility. Most importantly, opens up the future on our own terms, not those of Mighty Redmond.
