Don't get you hopes up!

As far as I know they aren't licensed to sell OS4 on anything but the hardware explicitly specified in the announcement.

So this agreement doesn't bring us any closer to hardware for the OS i'm afraid.

Hope i'm wrong!

If the boxed copy of OS4 for Phase5 PPC accelerators just so happens to run on other hardware* by "coincidence", then I say great! ;-)

*Say SAM440, Pegasos I & II, EFIKA, Powermac's etc. :-)
