Good luck trying to find one!

And you'll more than likely pay "over the top dollar"!  :-D

eBay's probably your best bet, but have you asked these guys? http://www.anythingamiga.com/

I haven't used mine much for a few months but I'm not yet at the stage where i could part with it.

I've also been considering floggoing my Peg1 for many months but still haven't been able to bring myself to do so.

Wait if at all ACK board is released, or Samantha.
The A1 has many hardware bugs that made it a bit of a pain.

Ok lets expand the options, preferance 1 still stands for Amiga one, 2. Amiga 4000 D or T with a PPC processor to run OS4, or 3rd a Pegasos with 1Ghz CPU. I suppose my chances are now better. Cheers too you all

You can't run OS4 on a classic Amiga with PPC card unless you have the beta version. Otherwise the only way of running it is on an AmigaOne.

My advice would be to get a Pegasos. They're cheaper than AmigaOnes, they're available now, and MorphOS is great.

I thought he was speaking about amiga? If somebody wants cheap computer he should buy PC and windows is much better supported than Morph OS

MorphOS supports Amiga software better than Windows.

@motorollin

Well, I have an A1-XE G4 with OS4, and Peg1 April2 with MOS 1.4.5. If I *had* to get rid of one, the Peg would go, no contest.

Maybe so. But the OP wants something now. I was just saying that if he can't find an A1, the Peg is a good compromise.

Unless your desperate and I mean really desperate just wait for the new hardware.

A Samantha port should already be well in progress, it's supposedly very reasonably priced and ofcourse include a full warranty.

Personally I don't hold much hope that anything will ever materialize from "ack"... Hope I'm proved wrong on this!

I didnt even think that the hardware was fully finished yet? The only thing i have heard is that hyperion has gotten their hands on the panda, which is a entirely different project.
