    The e500v2 cores inside Tabor's QorIQ P1022 CPU are 32-bit.


    Really? AmigaOS 4 anyway has nothing to do with 64 bit beside patching file sys.

    ...as long as sources are available.



    True. Sources and people willing to recompile, bugfix and continue development will be critical.

    40 of those are 64-bit ARMv8 (AArch64, "ARM64").



    I do understand ARM64 exists, as well as Linux and Android for it. I just dont see MOS with no touchscreen support there yet. Or even with it. Kind of backward retro enthusiasm - would love to see MOS advance to convenient desktop/laptop system, but not that far.
    Its up to MOS team to decide.
