The general problem for switching CPU to ARM or x86 is development resources, Hyperion has lot of on going projects they are not finished whit, they do not have the resources to make any jump.
What we are getting is the first dual core CPU that runs AmigaOS, and we are getting PCI express, besides that there is major undertaking in 3D graphics to be done, and there problem whit ever changing web browsers, no doubt will this be busy year for Hyperion.
If Hyperion did take up a lone, payed vendors to do drivers and focusing in going ARM, there is risk money invested wont be returned, and bankruptcy soon followed, is it not better to move at a slower phase and get something done, instead of going bankrupt and get nothing done.
We have PowerPC like it or not, going ARM or Intel now is not the right time, and if I may say so Apple is not doing too good in Intel market, its in the Iphone market they are making money right now.
I think ARM is a interesting chip because it can run in Big endien or Little endien mode,
