- I don't think this will ever be an option. As I recall, the BeBox was created
- because there wasn't any computer to run BeOS on. If the BeBox was supplied
- with a PPC AmigaOS, which is far from ready, this would be rather weird. As for

- Maybe it would be a good solution, but I hardly think Amiga Technologies would
- be interested in such an option.

- I'd say: Go for CHRP and have a choice of OS.
