You can run AROS/Amithlon/UAE on laptops right now.

There was a chap that actually built a luggable A600. Not quite your average laptop form factor, but not far off.

For OS4?  No.  For AROS on x86 or ARM, yes.  MOS on Mac PPC notebooks, yes.

That is too cool!  Man-an amiga might be a great candidate for a steam-punk makeover, like this:

@TheBilgeRat

That has to be one of Jake von Slatt's mods. His stuff is awesome and I'm not even a steampunk fan.

Spot on!  Here's the link to his build:

I'm actually reading his victorian school bus/camper build ATM.  If I had the wood/metal working toys like that....well...I'd probably cut my thumbs off :lol:

Hey Salax54, do you have your Workbench filling the overscan area in that A600's LCD? I'd love to see how awesome your Workbench looks, with such an expanded A600 you could have a pretty sweet setup.

Great job!
