Whoa!!! Hold your horses!
The chip isn't even presented yet, and it's featured as a news item on amiga.org as "good news for the amiga fans"?!
Technical details will be presented on October 15, and who knows what this thing will cost!
When it's first released, it'll be used in servers and stuff, probably from IBM themselves to begin with, then maybe Apple will start using them.
Because of that
goddamn compulsory licensing idiocy, Macs wouldn't do us any good anyway, Apple won't become an Amiga Inc. licensee before the thermal death of the sun!
We would have to wait until someone else started making affordable boards/systems with these chips, and then we could start hoping that someone would come along and get a license and want to bundle AmigaOS with this, and then, finally, the work to start making AmigaOS run on it could commence.
In other words, it's ridiculous to start dreaming about AmigaOS running on this for years to come, if at all.
Get used to it, as long as the announced AmigaOS distribution policies aren't torn up by the roots, then all hardware we'll ever see will only be sold via Eyetech, and
maybe, hypothetically, some time in the future some other small time player in the current Amiga "market".
