MorphOS/Pegasos2?

[nasty]

I'm planning on getting a Pegasos2 system, And from what I've been reading MorphOS/Pegasos2 can run Amiga software! I know there will be afew exceptions to this rule. But before I go diving in and buying a complete new system. I was wondering what Amiga software I could use on MorphOS/Pegasos2? example I'm guessing most of the Amiga games like payback,nightlong,heretic2 etc etc will run on MorphOS/Pegasos2 without major problems? Also would I be able to use programs such as ppaint,dpaint,soundtracker  and whdload for some of the non AGA games?

And does anyone here have the peg2 and what do you think about it?

Thanks in advance for any help :-D

Thanks maffoo:-D,  

Has anyone tryed e-uae under Morph0S? and is morphos/peg2 a good machine for gaming? and i would still like to hear what you guys think about morphos/peg2 as my goal is to have a replacment PC

Thank you again maffoo for your honest review on morphos :-D

Thanks for all the advice guys, one things that I'm wondering about is

MorphOS runs lots of AmigaOS software and games:

Myst 68k
Napalm 68k
Payback 68k
Quake 68k

Should'nt the PPC versions work on morphOS? also I'm sure I came across some kind of warp emulation for morphOS? or did I just make that last bit up :lol:

If OS4 and hardware was available, would you have gone towards purchasing that instead of pegasos/morphos?

I did have my chance to purchase an A1 when they were first released but after afew posts on here and some helpful replys, I did'nt feel the A1 was going to be a machine for me as with the emulation needed! I know now that whatever computer system I intend to use nowadays is gonna need some kind of emulation to run the older amiga software. So in answer to you question if it was available then I would give it some thought. and try to look at the big picture to see what the future held for the machine and as we all know a AmigaOne's should of came with a crystal ball. MorphOS/Pegasos2 seem to have a more defined future and development seems to be alot faster than that of the A1/OS4. So really aslong as I can continue to use my favorite apps like ppaint,soundtracker (brings me onto another question)and has the bit of power there to play the PPC games and apps like hollywood without slow downs then I'll be happy, cause for classic gaming I have my 1200 here that!

Has anyone tryed to run soundtracker on morphOS? as when I run it on my A1200 it opens in a pal screenmode so would this cause it not to work on MorphOS or is there some sort of forcemode for morphOS?

Also another question I thought of is what kind of video codecs are supported on MorphOS?

Yet again thank you for all the advice given so far :-)
