    You are right in that the Raspberry Pi has a huge spotlight shining on them right now, they have had media coverage, and everyone is looking. Can result in a considerable momentum. If MorphOS would strip away all Amiga Legacy stuff (the 68k emulator/JIT-emulator, all the Amiga Legacy stuff, and any "glue code" in the system that may be there to helps certain individual legacy 68k programs to run better. When the need for Amiga backwards compatibility is gone, a recompile of the OS could possibly be done quite fast. Compile the code to ARM, make drivers, support the HW. Would be a very limited verion of MorphOS, something reminding more of AROS, but more usable. Call it MorphOS Light, and sell it to the Raspberry Pi community for $35, bundled with pre-installed set of software that will make it fun and usefull, and showing off what MorphOS is about. A Cheap way to "spread the word", build a trade mark and some brand recognition for future endeavors on other platforms.
    MorphOS is Amiga done right! :-)
    MorphOS NG will be AROS done right! :-)
