ACK has pretty much confirmed that their high-end Amiga system will use PA Semi chips. In an IRC session, Adam of ACK replied to the question how ACK was going to build a system faster than anything Apple ever produced on the PPC side: "Think PA Semi quad-core chips." Adam also said ACK started talks with PA Semi about a year ago, while also promising specifications of the high-end system to be released coming Monday.

You know that windows XP can be run on 3-4 year old hardware without any problems, why does not people go buy old hardware instead of new?
Because not everyone is sucking on the MS teets. I can install OS X on a old decrepit iMac and it works great. Just because MS bloats its OS beyond reasonable proportions does not mean all other vendors do as well.

You know that windows XP can be run on 3-4 year old hardware without any problems, why does not people go buy old hardware instead of new? I think that is an stupid question just like your statement. Of course people would like to have an fast computer, no matter what OS it is running, it is not only the OS that will be running on the computer, so even if the os has an small footprint ans is blazering fast to work with, the software that will be used on the computer might require even more power.
