After all work to support G5 Mac models is completed, if there is no other PPC designs that have been produced that make sense to port MorphOS to that offer better performance than the G5 Mac models, and also are available at a reasonable cost, then I think the MorphOS Dev. Team should merge with the AROS developers and create a combined AROS/MorphOS for X86, instead of re-inventing the wheel all over again on X86 by themselves.
Considering that that (=Somewhat sensibly priced new PowerPC hardware) hasn't happened between 2007 and now, what makes you think that would happen any time soon?
Also remember it's not all about performance. Many would be happy with some "Sam440-grade" hardware, if the price reflected the specifications. A form factor is yet another thing. Personally I like small systems more than huge and noisy boxes like G5.
