@MikeB
although it would be cool... I honestly don't think the PS3 crowd would run out to buy Amiga OS4.1 thus supporting Hyperion and future Amiga projects. IMHO, buying a Sam and OS4.1 is the way to go

@MikeB, etc It does not matter whether OS4 has been tested on the PS3 or not. As the Frieden brothers have patiently explained several times, Sony does not give others access to the PS3's GPU, you have to use a dumb frame buffer, so graphical stuff would have very poor performance.
Until that changes, the PS3 is simply not an option. Perhaps Linux developers can emulate GPU performance using some of the Cell's SPEs, but SPEs are notoriously difficult to program, so it may well be too expensive/time-consuming for Hyperion to write such a thing from scratch.
