Good for you! I'm lucky enough to be using an alpha of OS4 and I think you'll really like the finished product.

As for US dealers, Software Hut sell AmigaOne systems.

Also, even a $799 G4 eMac (not even close to 2 grand) is as powerful as the AmigaOne hardware that's available and OS X will run great on it.


This is very true, and OS X does have a lot of nice software and eyecandy. However, if you want to get back into AmigaOS on a new PowerPC system, getting an Apple won't help. Whereas, with an AmigaOne, you can run Linux, OS X (slower than on a real mac due to lack of accelerated gfx under MOL, but usable), and very soon AmigaOS4.

I guess it just comes down to what you want from the machine.
