They are going for over £40 here for a g5 powermac, double that for a g4 MacBook. I haven't checked these are supported by morphos because I'd need to find somewhere to put it and it's already too expensive to then add the cost of morphos on the top.


Of course it's more expensive than not using a particular piece of hardware to run it, but compare the price to the existing options you have of running Amiga OS 4

Do any of you really believe that Hyperion is going to allow AmigaOS4.x to run on any emulator (if they have any way to prevent it, technically, or legally)?  It does not seem to be aligned with their market philosophy.


Yeah, just like what Nintendo did with the Wii, or what Sony did with the Playstation 2. Those two gigantic corporation, primarily interested in selling hardware, sure evaporated any way to viably emulate their systems.

Except they didn't, despite both spending tons of money engineering elaborate copy protection systems and expert lawyers.
