Amiga & AROS In yet another set of legal documents in the Amiga-Hyperion court case, it is revealed that AmigaOS 4 was ported to run on the Mac Mini (the PowerPC version, obviously), or, at least, that the port was in a very advanced state. The information was found in an email exchange between Bill McEwen of Amiga and Nicola Morocutti of VirtualWorks, about the latter obtaining a license to sell AmigaOS 4 together with the Sam 440ep board as well as, apparently, to sell boxed copies of AmigaOS 4 for the Mac Mini.

Said it before, saying it again, x86 is the way to go these days. Even Apple went that way, and showed that it was a great move. The Macbook I'm writing this on proves that if nothing else.

And the same goes for any other small OS out there, x86 is the ticket to survival.
