I'm quite surprised about a port to x64 to be honest, I always (maybe incorrectly?) thought of MorphOS as the OS of PPC :)
It is as all MOS hardware was and is PPC now.
But they are also first PPC only AmigaOS to go x64 and its a bold idea.
Only "problem" (if you wish to keep current hardware) is how long
PPC32/PPC64 hardware will be supported (PPC64 being G5 and x5000 CPU)
What is known "at best" is that transition is planned
and that few boards and not "all x64" will be supported,
so even x64 joy might mean a new hardware in the future.
But lets enjoy today.
I have just been offered a local source of PPC laps suitable for MOS
for under 80e. So I might become a MOS user sooner then I expected.
