The port is real and "official".

However, it is unlikely that any mac version would make it to the first MOS 2.0 batch: Pegasos I, Pegasos II and Efika come first.

This Mac port is not ready either, so hold your horses. Don't go out spend your last savings on Mac Mini assuming you can grab MorphOS for it tomorrow. These things take time. Any potential release can only happen once the port is finished.

But dang, it looks quite sexy, huh? :-)

The encoding is a bit wonky, and seems to fail for some players when streaming. You should try downloading it first and then opening the file locally.

If that doesn't work, VLC or mplayer will play it at least.

@Sir_Lucas

There has been no demo of MorphOS on PowerBook.

It is too early to specify which models would be supported eventually, but it's quite safe to rule out models based on other than radeon graphics cards (at least nvidia is out of the question).
