X86 is priced right and performance is great.
But, it would be hard to support all the variations of hardware in that market.
Jim,
MorphOS Team could choice a couple of motherboard brands and chipset models and support just them. In this way who wants to use MoirphOS knows that he must use that motherboard brand and model, it's easy. It would be like we already do with powermacs or GFX boards. The limitations would be the same we already have: to use MOS you should have "specific" hardware and maybe when a piece of hardware get mos support probably it has become old, but surely this gap in performance and price will be much less than how it is today!
Personally I don't think that use intel Macs for MOS to x86 migration would be a good idea. We would take another expensive road..
