I can realistically see Commodore producing a RISC workstation. They may not call it an Amiga, though. (BTW, I have heard nary a rumor about this so it's speculation on my part.) And why not? Apple's rumored to have an 88000-based machine in the works, IBM has plenty of different architectures, and the workstation market is growing and growing. Heh, Commodore may find the going tough against Sun, DEC, HP/Apollo, IBM, Integraph, Silicon Graphics...
