Buy a 2nd hand MacMini,PowerMac,eMac or PowerBook with G4-CPU and install MorphOS (http://www.morphos-team.net/). Will set you down just 100-300 Euro (depending on which HW you choose) and will give you as much modern PPC-Amiga as one can get.

Just read the FAQ to make sure you buy a supported model.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

you forgot to count in the price of morphos itself (over 100eur!).


No, I did not !!

eMacs or lowend PowerMacs can be had for 40Euro is you do some searching.

Now one can surely go beyond 300Euro with an PB5.9+key, but thats not really the point.
