I'd go with the AmigaOne, as:
* It will probably be the only one capable of running AmigaOS (at least legally). I'm sure MOS will turn out okay as well, but the AmigaOS4 featurelist (as well as the development team) impresses me quite a bit more. I'm sure someone here can point you in the direction of the MOS featurelist so you can make your own comparison.
* I think the AmigaOne, having a well-known brand name, has a better chance at market penetration.

There are quite a few of us around here who have already ordered an AmigaOne board, but we are always looking for more people ;-). You are most welcome to join us. After many years of stagnation, the Amiga is finally getting a significant upgrade. Together we can make this work. :-D

*The AmigaOne HAS a "friggin OS". It currently runs LinuxPPC, as well as MacOS (through MOL).
*The AmigaOne WILL get AmigaOS.
*By buying now, he will get AmigaOS4 for free when it comes out. If he waits until OS4 is finsihed, he will have to pay extra for it.
