Reasons for the Efika:
The whole system, a dedicated AROS PPC system , can be built for under £200.
It's Small, so it won't take up your entire office, like a PC based Amiga.
It will be the first "official" AROS computer. That's actually quite a big step when you think about it. A machine that you can go out and buy, specially to run AROS on.
Obsolete? Yes. But so's your 7.14mhz A500, and no one seems to complain about those around here. It gets you a proper Open-Amiga for a low price, in a small form factor that you can stack on top of your PC.
The point is, it's a beginning. Yeah sure, we'd ALL love to see AROS on a 64 bit Three-core Multiple gigahert IBM PowerPC system, but it's just not going to happen, is it!? And even if it did, almost no-one here could afford them anyway.
So stop griping at the project paid for considerably by the company who makes them, ok? The fact that any company is taking an interest in building AROSMIGA's is great.
I welcome it, at least.
