OS4.1:
Pegasos II
Sam ep440
Sam flex

OS4:
PPC Classic amiga

MorphOS:
Efika
Pegasos I & II
PPC Classic amia (older versions)
MacMini (soon they say)

Software compatability
For both os it seems that OS3.x friendly software runs fine, even DPainIV and FinalWriter97!

But games that bang, needs e-uae.

Now, the hardware list might be faulty. But please remember that OS4.0 has only booted to KS screen on Mac Mini, and if someone gets it to boot to WB it´ll be an unsupported setup that might break any time on official updates.

Both MorpOS and OS4 are still being developed and officially supported.

My opinion is that if you want the most CPU, you´ll go for AROS which is x86, and no m68k emmulation at this moment, but it´ll give you access to the fastest hardware.

If you care about m6k software, like DPaintIV and FinalWriter, Civilization and Colonization, then you´ll go MorpOs, OS4.x or both.

Now AROS can also run m68k software, but that´s using e-uae and not fully integrated yet. It´s being worked upon.

My choice?

All three. I have an efika with MorphOS, plans for a SAM and a wobbly install of AROS :)

Wow  :-o

Really, I thought KS was as far they had come. Is that installed on HD and booting from it, or is it booting from CD or USB?
