I think there should be a push for a G5 in future Amigas. Okay, OS 4 isn't taking advantage of all the features of the PowerPC processor, but Ben Hermans did say that the blood, sweat and tears getting a working AOS on PPC hardware are over, now they can start concentrating on enhancing the Amiga OS to take advantage of such technologies that PowerPC is well known for.

The G5 means prestige, which is a good selling point in its own right. I hope that Eyetech has the PPC-970 somewhere in its sights for future boards.

Heh, maybe Eyetech are working on it, but would rather we buy the current offerings than hold our breaths another year or two for G5.
