Who would like to see MorphOS on SAM?

[takemehomegrandma]

I've been wondering lately why MorphOS hasn't been ported to the SAM boards. Is this ever going to happen? I think it would be a great thing to see and if the Morph team are confident in the OS they have made perhaps this would be a good way of getting another bit of user base. I'm interested in any comments and opinions anyone else may have on this so have your 5 cents folks and tell us what you think.

Why, what's the point? Sam is ridiculously overpriced and underpowered, which is why there aren't many out there. Even the Pegasos 2 was cheaper and much more powerful than a Sam, and that was many years ago. And today a Mac Mini that can be close to 2x the speed of the Pegasos 2 costs about $150 (+/- $50). Better add support for the other PPC Mac model's that makes sense (Powerbook, PowerMac G5, iBook G5), and then migrate to a CPU architecture that has a pulse...

The various Mac PPC models is as much mainstream, easily available desktop HW as the PPC ever had. There is nothing else, it's as simple as that. Nothing better and nothing cheaper than the Mac HW. I'm sure you know that MorphOS doesn't (yet at least) run on x86 or any other architecture. And it's a bit funny (no, it's actually hilarious) to see advocates of Sam dismiss Mac PPC machines as terribly expensive and have outdated performance, when the PPC Macs represents *the peak* of PPC desktop HW, it was how far the PPC ever came on the desktop.
