Eh?

What would the point be of that, all OS4.0/4.1 software is written for PowerPC, if they port to 68K they may as well port to something infitely more useful like X86... but they allways said that won't happen.
Machines:
- A1200, Blizzard 1260 w/ 64MB RAM, 1.2GB HD, PCMCIA WiFi, AGA w/ RGB Adapter, OS3.9
- Pegasos I, G3 600Mhz, 512MB, Radeon 9200se, 80GB HD, AmigaKit WiFi Card, MOS 1.4.5
- Mac Mini, G4 1.5ghz, 512MB (1GB Soon), Radeon 9200 64MB, 80GB HD, OSX 10.5 (Leopard)
- PCs, Laptops... *yawn*... :D

Off course they can do 4.1 for 68k, but what would you use it for?

Only potential I can see is that you can then run 4.1 under WinUAE, but if the future of Amiga is emulated OS under Windows then I would not like the future.

Use your brain, why did they do 4.1?

Answer: to make money

Can they make money on making OS for obscure hardware (AmigaOne)?

Answer: no

You guess the rest...
