[redrumloa]

Coolness, but WAAAH!!! Where is Power Mac G4 support? I thought that would be first? :lol:

[redrumloa]

Wow, eMacs are cheap!

In the pipeline. We didn't want to delay 2.5 any further (it was already delayed more than we anticipated).

I'm just giving you a hard time! Good work! MorphOS is becoming very tempting again as the cost of entry is minimal...

[redrumloa]

So are PowerMac G5's....

Afaik G5 support is not planned. Right Piru?

Which is available for 111,11 EUR now btw.

That is very good to hear. It is priced reduced or on sale? That coupled with the recent decline of the Euro against the USD makes it a lot easier to swallow.

@LoadWB

I haven't used MorphOS since about v1.4 or so, but I can say even back then it was amazing. I can only imagine how good it is now. I gotta see what I can do to raise some $$$ to buy a key before the sale ends.

Yes, since the majority of MorphOS users are software pirates.

According to this poll, about 80% are or at least were in the past.

The sad reality is it would get pirated. If nothing else some people would buy it and install it on multiple of their own computers and maybe their friends' computers locally.
 
Like it or not, and I am not crazy about it, the price is for a single user, single computer license. I thoroughly dislike the licensing scheme, just as I disliked Hyperion's licensing scheme in the past. Will it stop me from registering? It sure contributed when the cost of the OS was over $220(USD). With the sale and the decline of the Euro, it is a somewhat easier pill to swallow.
