Don't underestimate the 128 MB. A lot of stuff easiy useable. The most important app that is easily consuming all the 128 MB is OWB. But you can use it with 1-3 tabs, just watch the RAM usage and quit before you get out of RAM. Also there is Sputnik, which shares a bit of Efika's fate. Good approach, but literally eaten by the successor (Sputnik - OWB , Efika - Mac mini).
Most other apps are really fine with 128 MB.
It is a tiny fun computer, pretty nice for tinkering around and surprisingly useable for many things.
I couldn't agree more Zylesea - the 128MB is not as tough to deal with as one might think. I enjoyed my trial version so much with my little Efika that I was 100% sold on MorphOS in all honesty. Little did I know that when the time came to register that my mac mini would be ready to be put back to use
I am going to take advantage of the discounted registration price and give my Efika some registered love..and finally integrate into my home theatre thanks to AmiNetRadio.
Like many, my Efika gathered a thick layer of dust - but only until just recently when tone007 did his Atari 5200 case/forum post, it made me stop and really take a second look and feel somewhat..well....guilty. I really don't think I gave it much of a chance. That is why I thought I'd start this little site to maybe have us all give it a second look and stop selling them on the used market for a loss.
Thanks to everyone's kind words about the site. I hope you all can click into the site's little 'forum' too and share stories, and contribute a bit. Oh, and please drop me some photos of your Efika too!
Before I make it into a shoutcast/mp3 player..(which I will document eventually on the site) I plan on giving a blow by blow as I try out some Linux implementations and finally a MorphOS on Efika revisit to the best of my ability.
Bottom line - Steven/ClusterUK need to be around during the Efika launch I think. hehe Maybe it would be in a slightly better place.
Please continue to check on the site as time passes if you are curious.
