I searched through OSNEWS and found Thom was thinking the same thing. That AmigaOS released for old, outdated Amiga hardware is bad move.

I just read Thom's article. Good one.

Also noticed that Genesi was saying they'd port AmigaOS to Efika themselves. Which I'd say is highly doubtful because of legal issues ( & maybe technical too ). Though it'd be cool to have AmigaOS work on newer & available hardware. But I'd like to see Efika's with better hardware specs because they appear to be underpowered.

PS MorphOS 1.4.5 will run on the Amiga's I listed in my previous post but I should point out that MorphOS is now at version 2.0 which works only on Genesi hardware.
