Would there be a market for a machine that runs all your comfortable Amiga software (Pagestream 3, Toast, …) AND PowerMac software (and of course regular Mac software) AND OS/2 and Chicago? I'm thinking that if the PowerPC cpu series can run Mac operating system, it can be made to run AmigaDos. I visualize Jim Drew's developer consortium, after buying the right to the Amiga, developing it in native mode, but also porting it to the PowerPC cpu. I was going to say that the next generation Emplant would run Mac and Dos software, but the PowerPC chip shouldn't need an Emplant to do that. . . . . JimDoc, on AutoPilot
