@ALL

I completely agree with the vision of Mr. Dave Haynie, in short, the success of the Amiga platform was simply that it was the best of the best in his time, today is not even close enough to be a computer normal desktop.

In their heyday, even NASA use in many projects. Someone believes that NASA would use the X1000 and AOS4 in some projects?

I personally think that this is not the way.

Fortunately, all is not lost, I had the chance to see the small project running with friends:

(x64 4 cores, 16 GB RAM, nvidia 9600GT)

... and I again had the feeling it gave me my A500, I hope and despair to see the version 1.0 of this real and authentic evolution of Amiga dream.

@eXec
X86 doesn't mean money automatically, Linux survives because its' free (same goes for other options), if it was going against Windows on par (both commercial) it would be a failed company already.
In a broader sense we could say that today (commerically speaking/mainstream) anything that's not backed by billions is dead no matter the CPU. And that the opposite is true. With enough money you can make a triple core 3.2Ghz PPC system and sell it for ¤150 (ie:x360) more million for exiting developments and some more for national television adds and voilą, you a have a PPC system that non only isn't dead at all, it actually very succesful.
