    According to the MorphOS team, you won't be able to run MorphOS/x64 on your PC you happen to have at home anyway. Drivers will be for defined boards/components or machines, so running MorphOS/x64 will most likely require you to buy dedicated hardware. Of course, you will also be able to run Windows or Linux on it, but the incentive to buy the hardware will be running MorphOS, same as with ARM-based SBCs (in case of potential MorphOS/ARM) and today's MorphOS-compatible hardware that can also run Linux.

    Bottom line: Who wants to run MorphOS has to buy dedicated hardware, no matter the ISA.
