Post any sensible or crazy ideas you would like to see happen on an Amiga System (hardware, emulated, AROS or PPC).

I think that about 99.9% of the posts on this forum cover your request, and the bulk of them fall under 'crazy'.  ;)

PPC emulation built in to WinUAE, so you could run a hosted OS4.

Surely that would only boost OS4 sales.

X1000 Amiga must have included as standard:

Java/Javascript Support
Wireless Support
Web Browser comparable to Safari or Firefox (with CSS support!)
Flash/Air Support
Massive commitment for porting Open Office and other top apps
Email Client
A roadmap for supporting HTML 5.0
At least a 1.5 Ghz Processor
Cool short TV Adverts - "I'm an Amiga" - "Amiga vs PC" - "Bouncing Balls"
Extensive developer interest from teams people like me have actually heard of
Extensive graphically-rich user interface (move away from existing colour scheme) and supply desktop 'themes'.
Eg. this is exactly how the wallpaper, interface and dock should look:

AROS Kickstart bounty finished followed by work to make it 1.3 compatible so that we can completely have an IP free Amiga classic.

That the next Amiga restores America's sovereignty (and other nations), and ends the New World Agenda.

Since we're hoping, wishing and praying... I'd like a completed GB1000 board for reasonable someday.

Something really innovative and new, that has a wow factor, like Amiga was in 1985.  Sadly this is crazy thinking....

Shakira real doll...

oh sorry wrong Amiga system

Ummm A working system with backwards compatibility to AGA with the use of the fasted desktop CPU's out there.

I guess an evolved version of Amithlon with full AGA/ECS emulation either via software or hardware.

I'd be happy with a hybrid Amithlon/UAE setup that boots off of linux or directly into workbench on either standard PCs or selected motherboard componenets with support for the following:

Fastest Intel CPU
Modern Nvidia PCIE cards
SATA
Lotsa RAM
USB 1, 3
Firewire
ESATA
wireless N
etc.
