Don't get me wrong, I DO enjoy my dual-proc axel board ;-)
But the real point is, 95% of our current OS is 68k only, and something like
MorphOS encourages developers to upgrade the most critical parts of the OS
towards PPC (exec, picture.datatype, CGX, AHI, MUI and so on).
I don't really miss the 68k emulation, but I do miss the PPC incentive behind
MorphOS. I wish WarpOS would have followed the same way a long time ago... But
perhaps am I underestimating the forthcoming flavors of Classic AmigaOS ? ;-)
Regards,
