$40 US isn't out of the question for supported software.
$40? Where do you see that price?
They do have PPC versions, albeit for the MAC.
It's probably of less interest when they have to decide whether a port to AmigaOS is feasible, that they have a version for MacOS running on a similar processor. That would only be interesting if it was written in assembler, which I highly doubt. Otherwise the similarity of the operating systems and their APIs are much more important, pointing more towards their Linux products.

But even if they could be persuaded to port one of their products to AmigaOS, the work involved versus the numbers they could expect to sell would make it orders of magnitude more expensive than those $40 (wherever they came from).

Basically, don't hold your breath :-).

Best regards,

I had emailed Tolis group almost a year ago and I got a very quick reply that at that time they said "they will not be able to make the port for Amiga." They did say that version 18 would read the Amiga archives....
