I've got an unused one sitting in my garage.  They are cute but really lack the power to run modern OS X applications.  If there was a Morphos (hint, hint) available, then you could paint the base to look like half a bong ball.  That would be cool....

Yeah, the one in the garage is my son's, he couldn't do anything with it anymore so we replaced it with a throwaway dual 1 GHz G4, which handles modern things ok.

I wonder what UAE would run at on this machine?  I mean even at 1/15th the speed you are still talking 50 MHz, which is quite decent for a retro Amiga.  Maybe Jaguar and UAE or Yellow Dog Linux and UAE?  But you have to paint the base to make a half a bong ball....

The only way to legally obtain the ROMs is to extract them from machines you already own or buy Amiga Forever.  I bought Amiga Forever...
