Not possible :-)
OS4 doesn't support *any* laptop. It doesn't support no x86 machines either.These are your options if you want OS4:X1000 (costs ~$3,000+ and can have up to a half year of delivery time after you succeed in making a pre-order of one). Drivers/support for key features of the motherboard isn't there yet.Sam 460 system/Amigaone 500 (ends up at about ~$1,500 including peripherals like case, HDD, etc, taxes and shipping). It performs like a Pegasos 2 (or slightly below), it has some oddities to its expansion options, and the driver situation still isn't 100% in all areas.Sam 440 system (ends up at about ~$1,100 including peripherals like case, HDD, etc, taxes and shipping). It's too slow to be meaningful in a modern context (watching todays video's, browsing complex web pages, etc)Pegasos 2 G4 (can only be bought second hand). Probably your best option, but can be difficult to find; it's great quality HW, performance is decent, and driver support is possibly best compared to the rest above.Amiga PowerUP boards. Obsolete. For masochists only.If you want "Amiga NG" with Laptop support, your best option is MorphOS on a Mac PowerBook (PPC). MorphOS also runs on PPC PowerMac's, Mac Mini's etc, all easily available as second hand, at prices ranging between $50-$250, and their top level versions perform at the same level or better than the $3,000+ X1000 mentioned above. MorphOS per se also gives huge benefits over OS4, if you are interested in knowing about that you can ask by starting a new thread with that topic! ;)There! Hopes that helps!:)
@lassieNo. Amiga OS 4.0 runs on certain specific PPC system cards.To run Amiga OS 4.0 you will have to purchase a compatible PPC system, or add a compatible PPC accelerator card to your existing Amiga 4000 or Amiga 1200 system.For example:Amiga 1200 plus Blizzard PPC 603eAmiga 4000 plus Cyberstorm PPC604eAmigaOS 4.1 for Classic Amigas is available at http://www.amigakit.comPlease read the system requirements before you purchase the CD.---redfoxMicroA1 + Amiga OS 4.1 Update 5
