If You want MorphOS Your question was already answered, otherwise for AmigaOS look here http://www.amigaos.net/content/72/supported-hardware.

68k apps can be emulated on both systems if You want to.

Have fun!

He asked about MorphOS not OS4.

A PowerMac G4 will cost about €40 or less and MorphOS is free to try out. Cheapest OS4 machine will be ten times that price at least plus €150 to try OS4 as there is no demo version.

You might find this excellent thread by takemehomegrandma very useful to find out what Mac hardware to use with MorphOS

Just to play devil's advocate, he also stated that he's been away from the Amiga scene for 11 years.  Given the way the question was phrased, he might never have heard of OS4.  Although MorphOS does seem to be the less expensive way to achieve a NG "Amiga".  

In either case, welcome back!  

I'll bite.

Would it not be a tad strange for someone away from the scene that long to have heard of MorphOS but not OS4?

Could be it was just the first thing that came up on a Google search?  Dunno, guess we'll have to wait for OP to answer the mystery!  

Actually I heard of MorphOS first, but that was back in 2003... I don't even recall, was there such a thing as OS4 at the time?  :p

Edit:  Haha, look what I found in an old thread.  On the Internet nothing ever dies.    http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=44903

What a blast from the past!

You are right that OS4 didn't exist in 2003, it had been "two more weeks" away for at least two years at that point.
