Probably not before the 21st century, depending on how you decide the 20th
ends.  As I understand it, plans are to release a "Bridge" developer
system next year, which would be an Intel box running QNX with the
equivalent of a 1200 on a PCI card.  Beyond that it's supposed to be the
still un-named mystery chip etc.  QNX is just the core, I suspect that the
timetable is to take a year or two developing a new OS, anοΏ½ then sweep it
all clear and restart the Amiga as a totally new platform, leaving legacy
software (as virtually all of the important commercial Amiga software has
given up the ghost anyway), and starting over as a brand new platform.
