At least for AOS, since it already runs on the PWRficient PA6T, it seems more like a step instead of a jump.
For me, I just like the hardware. I have 2 x86_64 (or whatever they're called) running Linux, and absolutely no interest in doing anything on them except playing Free cell and INTERNET stuff. They're just appliances.
Anyway, my order is in for the dual socket Talos II. I don't expect delivery until July/August sometime so will be spending time looking for a case and other needed stuff.
Now that they have announce a lower cost derivative, I'll join you in this.
Once I have it, my first objectives will be porting AROS and trying to get SAM460 and X5000 emulation running on it.
The scary thing is that that will still leave a lot of computing power left over for other processes.
Hopefully someone is writing a good hypervisor based virtualization manager.
