macmini morphos

It's progressing fine. The Mac Mini port currently lacks network and audio support. Thus, a while to go.
Last weekend it was publically demoed at Bad Bramstedt, e.g. a  1080p h.264 video fluently replayed by Mplayer was shown. It was also said to get rolled out as soon as possible, but there's no estimation *which* date it may be.

The first MorphOS release with Mac support (most likely V2.3, V2.2 will come very soon and be for Peg & Efika) will introduce Mac Mini support only. But the developer is all open to extend support o more Macs, namely Radeon driven G4 notebooks. But it also depends on availability of developer maschines...

I have to quote Frank Mariak here:
Don't count too much on some notebook support, at least don't hold your braeth for that - you may risk to suffocate.

What do you mean by that? It depends on some bounty system for hardware, or what?

If you have a spare iBook or such, you may ask if it would be helpful to provide it as developement maschine. AFAIK hardware is generally welcomed, but 1st thing to do is ask on #morphos if it is of any help.
