It's clear that neither you nor Kronos understand what I'm trying to say here because you lack the necessary background information.

The idea is exactly to avoid baggage in the system.

I'll leave it at that.

And I said that this will NEVER happen as their won't be enough new
SW by the few developers left to replace all the old 68k-SW.

So, you think OS 4 is a waste of time and resouces and that energies would have been better put to making a better Amithlon type system?

The transition from AA (or OCS) dependant SW to RTG-compatible SW was
similar as it also needed lot of replacements for old SW. The years
this took (or Apples journey to PPC) serve as an perfect example of the
problems you will encounter before you could come to the point Ben
has been writing about.


Thus Ben said Long Term plan. That way it doesn’t have to be delt with laterin probably a more problimatic way.

Kronos nittpicking again

ofcores most of the 68k SW will not be redone for ppc.

as no one uses all the 68k SW.

but im sure the 68k SW that ppl still value & need & is still being developed will get a ppc version or there will a ppc
