Current MorphOS-compatible computers can run Linux as well
Yes, I have also linux on my MorphOS and AmigaOS machines.
But people who buy this machines due to linux are very few. If any. Maybe Xeno74.
On this machines MorphOS is very fast and comfortable and linux slow. I have linux here for joy from obscure PPC platform and for Office.
People with fast X86 PC have very little reason to buy MorphOS for this. Better games? Internet? Office? Joy? Special programs? Fast CUDA? Networking? I don't think so. And Amiga sense? Look for last WinUAE changes.
I think only people on (far less) obscure platform like ARM where the systems are not so user-friendly and where resources are often limited (but big enough from our point of view) will have benefit from using MorphOS.
But it is my oppinion. MOSdev can make their own good or bad decision.

With SMP-less MorphOS this factor would be significantly lower, I guess.
Agree, and this can be way for future development.
