Re: Just Registered MorphOS for $140.94 USD!!!

Thanks for your post XDelusion. I just got my eMac yesterday in a huge box by UPS. Those suckers are HEAVY!! It was just the unit with the power cord. I connected everything but I realized that I didn't have a USB KB ARRRGGHHHH!!!! There was a time when I would throw them away because I had way to many. At least it powers on with MAC OS X.

As soon as I find a KB I am going to try MorphOS as well but I don't want to lose MAC OS X. Is there an easy to follow guide on how to dual boot? I imagine I would have to shrink the current partition with maybe gparted, unless there is a built-in partition manager in MOS?  Can I still boot in MOS like a live CD before installing it (Like AROS Does)?

I would also bought MorphOS if it were a computer to use it on. And no Mac in my house.



I don't know where you live but here in USA eMacs are all over eBay. I got mine for $29 + $39S&H. I was the only one to bid on it. Honestly, I wasn't sure I was going to win it but I did and I got it in 2 days. It was amazing.

@Amigamia
It was not what I meant, they must pay me for a Mac to come into the house.


Oh I see! OK.

Just ignore him I guess. It's his decision to not want a mac but he can't stop us talking about Apple hardware where MorphOS runs now.

After some struggle trying to figure out how to open the darn CD tray and boot from it (LOL, Apple newbie here!)I managed to boot the MorphOS CD on my eMac. It is SWEET!!!! LOVE IT already. Boots in no time and it really does have the Amiga Workbench feeling. Seems to be snappy and fast. Porting MorphOS to eMac was an excellent Idea IMO.
