If you need an Amiga laptop surely it would be useless for work?

If someone can persaude IBM to ressurect their PPC based Thinkpads ( last seen 1997 IIRC ) and someone steps up as reseller to license them for AmigaOS then it would cost the same as a normal laptop.

Alternatively the same for PowerBooks, no reason someone couldnt set up a license with Amiga to resell on Powerbooks in quantity with AmigaOS. If they have the capital and the business plan.

Possible, but not probable.
Hate figure. :lol:

@Senex

"Either you wait for the Eclipsis  or for MorphOS for Apple computers."

Then they will be waiting a long time for the former and maybe forever for the latter. Just why would "Genesi" undermine their own Pegasos product by allowing people to buy MorphOS for Apple computers?

This "Eclipsis" is just vapour, at least the Pegasos exists here & now.

If the guy/gal needs it for work they will have probably got to get it within the next few weeks anyway so this is academic. It is going to be an x86/AMD based laptop.
Hate figure. :lol:
