$2500 is way into the very high end x86 laptop range; to even consider this price tag for anything PPC in 2014 is laughable. And considering E-eon made plain desktop systems out of standard PC components and that the price for these exceeded $3000 by some margin, it's not very difficult to imagine how the price for something entirely custom made (and where engineering challenges are so much higher) such as a laptop could indeed push up towards that $5000 figure you mentioned. And that is so insane that no words are enough to describe how insane it really is...

Considering how little AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS demands of the hardware and still feel fast
I don't really agree. Sure, the OS itself and the old 68k applications etc is very snappy. But I see many areas (such as heavy web browsing, heavy media usage, rendering, compiling, etc) where CPU power is essential, and where a PPC is not really an option today, especially not a "low end" (what is that today really in terms of PPC?) one, and especially not at the cost of $5000...
