Hi all -
Just got a G4 Mac Mini to install Morphos.

Great! Congratulations! :D :pint:

What is the duration of the license that is purchased?  If I buy now, will I get 3.x later this year or should I just wait for 3.x?

Absolutely, if you register 2.7 now, the registration will be transferred for free to 3.0 *for that particular Mac Mini*! :) (Yes, the key file is tied to individual machines, not users. Also, it's said that there will be a small price drop on older machines such as Mac Mini when 3.0 is released, but I have no idea of by how much, or when that will happen)

Are there any good guides to starting software development in Morphos?   If so, can you please point them out.


You download the MorphOS SDK from here: http://www.morphos-team.net/downloads
Some good introductory articles about MorphOS (scroll down to "Development") are found here: http://library.morphzone.org/Main_Page
I think many of the general Amiga documentation applies, and may be good to have at hand?

Feel free to ask question on http://www.morphzone.org or on IRC for best attention (maybe someone will see your question if you ask them here as well?)

Also, if you are looking for general apps to use on your MorphOS, have a look here:
http://morphos.lukysoft.cz/
http://www.morphos-files.net/
http://mos.aminet.net/

A way of quickly getting a full-blown set up, configured, and with lots of applications pre-installed is to use Pack Ultimate from Papiosaur!

Have fun! :)
