A question
« on: April 09, 2010, 11:35:43 AM »
Hey,

Just a stupid question, I have a Mac Mini G4, 40gig hd, 512MB ram etc. I want to know what exactly I can do with Morph OS:

What applications are available?
Can I run Amiga games/apps?
What is the flaws to the OS?


Any info would be great
Cheers,
Justin

It's €150 (About £130), which is still the only thing that puts me off getting it (I have a 1.5ghz PPC Mac Mini...)

I can't really see why the license has to be so high... for another £70 you can get a netbook from some shops... :-O

Anyway, if you think it's worth it then i'm sure it's easy to register via the ISO posted previously.

jeez. im not paying that amount lol. even mac os x is cheaper than that. i actually thought it was open source, hence being free or reasonably cheap. i actually bought a new keyboard and mouse for my mac to use morph os, so i think ill take back my brand new keyboard and mouse and buy a commodore 64 which i spotted for 25 quid :)

As far as I know, you are free to download and try it, but it won't run for more than 30 mins until you buy it.

I don't think the price is unreasonable. The amiga has always been a small volume (and thus expensive) hobby. OS4.1 doesn't cost much less than that (I paid about 100UKP) and unless you already have a compatible machine to run it on, is probably going to end up costing rather more than MOS2 with a second hand mac mini.

If you want a free Amiga OS implementation for newer hardware, you should give AROS a try.



ok thanks :)
