Hi all,

It's here lately:

I don't even have a decent final copy of OS4 and BW is blowing a lot of wind 
about Amiga OS 5. I apologize for the windy day! :)
 
<-quote from final questions:

There has been a lot of debate in the Amiga community, in the last couple 
of years, about the choice to make OS4 for PPC. After Apple switched to x86, 
the PPC is dead as a desktop CPU. Yet in the 25 questions you said that OS4 
would never move away from PPC, and that you'd have to wait for OS5 to run 
AmigaOS on x86. One of the Frieden brothers estimated that a port to x86 
could be done in only a few months (twice the time to port to a new PPC 
platform), and it would solve the hardware availability issues permanently. 
Given those facts, what's the reasoning behind the decision to stay with the 
PPC?

BM>> The Cell processor is used by Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii (stupid name 
by the way), and Playstation 3. There are numerous other high end graphics 
and 
multi-media devices coming out in the coming months that use Cell, and Cell 
is 
PPC. There is a great deal of opportunity staying with PPC and expect that 
with 
the conversations that we have had with Freescale, and IBM, that there are 
several OEM's that are interested in what we have planned as well.
