x86 on commodity hardware would bring in more hobbyists and more devs |
Would it? Why would someone even remotely consider using and developing for an OS on their x86 hardware that has no memory protection, supports only a handful of old gfx cards with limited or no 3D support with old outdated APIs and hardly any software of interest and it even costs quite a bit of money around 100 EUR, when there are plenty of alternatives with far more capability, many of which are free? MorphOS is also available on cheap Mac hardware and yet it's not like Mac developers are now moving over to MorphOS as their platform? AROS is available for x86 and it doesn't look like it's winning over the PC developer community. |
