79.00 is about 100usd.

I think thats a fair price for all the work that has poured into this...

Now If I just had a mac... I've been saying forever I will get one for this but haven't yet...

Someone post some screenshots please...?

I think It does add alot to a machine like that. Me? I think mac hardware is very nice but since I've run linux for many years, osx is just not that exciting to me, so I never bought a mac. I always thought they were way to expensive. On the used market though... 50-100$ is not bad for something to play with.

I keep saying I will buy a g4 mac for this, but haven't yet. If anyone has one cheap, pm me, especially if you'd like to trade for some amiga stuff. I have an amigamaniac svideo adapter, and svideo to vga adapter,an a500 brick power supply, and a bunch of aminet cdroms, maybe some other odds and ends.

I'm not sure about this myself, but if you run winuae on a 1.5ghz pc...

It will not run many very demanding games (like super stardust aga) without stuttering sound and dropping frames. Even a 2ghz pc will not run some games smoothly...

This is why I'm a bit hesitant to buy a 1.5ghz g4 mac for morphos.

My 3ghz aros box runs any classic amiga game or software just fine.
