I'd pay for an OS 4.1 for old PPC Macs!


I'd pay 200$ for MacMini PPC AmigaOS4 - or MorphOS!!

About this AROS story here again, it is not a functional system since it doesn't work on most PC/notebook SoC configurations (like mine hp530 and others, too).  I bought some game for my laptop - HoM&M V - and it didn't work because of the embedded Intel graphics.  But this is just a game, I got rid of the box, end of story.  Operating system - another story.  Especially when all decent Linuxes (Ubuntu, Fedora) install practically on anything.  I am more to happy that iMica exists, but to me, that would be another (third) hardware at home - just like Sam for AOS4...  My point is AROS team should really focus on SoC graphic drivers, since in say two years, 90% PCs will be notebooks.  Basing on that assumption, AROS isn't a x86 compatible system now.  Please take it into account while mentioning its tremendous benefits.
Was: Mac Mini PPC running MorphOS 2.4
Now: Amiga Forever 2010 with AmiKit and AmigaSYS
Not used: Icaros Desktop 1.2 (reason: no wifi)
Planned soon: an OS4 system
Shortly then: a MOS notebook (wifi is a must-have)
