I bet some people will buy it mostly to support development. 180 MorphOS sales should not be impossible. But I wonder why it will take hundreds of hours of development? Can't they use the AmigaOS 4 version as a base for the MorphOS port? Or are they using a really strange, non-portfriendly programming language or something?

As a side note, I think it's interesting to see how MorphOS and AROS users are being asked to "guarantee" that certain sales figures will be reached as a condition for work to even start, while on OS4 they just do it.
I also thought that was odd. But my guess is that Trevor is funding that port (at least partly) himself.
They didn't ask for a garuantee though. Just that there are "180 potential buyers".
