Mac mini G4 >1.42, Powerbooks and Powemac G5  give ~060@80 mhz speed emulation. X1000 gives a bit slower speed but not much. Mac mini with MorphOS is the best option for newcomers and costs 10 times less than X1000 having similar speed.

Sorry but for running 68k games and following Os4 development WinUAE PPC on a fast PC is a way better/cheaper. Maybe after releasing 3d drivers X1000 would be useful but now WinUAE provides similar support except speed.

Nobody said that X1000 needs to emulate all classic software. All software which doesn't use hardware directly works (pagestream, imagefx, photogenics, ...). Most of games (+protacker and some older software) don't  use operating system and they require emulation using euae. MorphOS has the same (similar) abilities to run amiga software. There is Aros also but it doesn't run amigaos programs on any decent hardware.
