The Amiga is - and will stay for some time - a micro market.
If you really take it serious, it would more likely needs something like a PS3 (or such) with a similar price point and a market which targets the living room to really bring Amiga back to a main stream. I doubt, that something which - just - would beat a Peg will be sucessfull in that respect. Even the Peg is low spec.
We can talk about specs up and down here all the time. Even the fastes current design of any potential PPC based alternative motherboard, which is (or will be) capable of running AmigaOS (or MOS for that matter) is slower than the latest Mac sold with a powerpc. And even this will not change for a long period of time.
Why I'm saying that? If you cannot accept that fact, I think you are in the wrong place here. We give a sh.t, that's why we are here. We are here because we'd like a decent HW which can run our favorit OS. That's just it. If it will be on a competition level to say an x64 AMD or PS3 or XBox or what ever, fine. If not, who gives a dime?
Considering that, the whole power.org, peg, genesi discussion is really boring. Well, and only here to fill the void, I suspect.
I really hope OS4 will be available soon. Simply because I'd like to spend my time a little bit more effectively - and not finding myself dragged into these endless polemic discussions again and again. rgh. what ever. _________________ AmigaOne XE G3/933/VIA/FM801/R200 (fixed), G3SE/600/Voodoo3/Sil680/RTL8139/SBLive!
