I have good news for you: There's a MorphOS E-UAE tutorial here (unfortunately you need a Google Translator for that, unless you read Polish) to help you.

Sorry but I am now retired and really can't afford a machine like that (that is: Pegasos or Efika)


Once again, a good news my friend. I can sell you my Efika (Mobo plus PCI to AGP riser and a MorphOS license) for a mere 30$ (plus shipping cost). No iCrap attached. "It's new, (well, newer than any PPC Apple) it's German, it's supertough!"

People actually paid to run MorphOS on that little piece of junk with 128MB of RAM?  I used the demo on mine for one or two 30 minute demo sessions before deciding to retire the machine to the garage.

Remember that there was a time when it was pretty much the only option (except for a rather pricey Pegasos II or a PPC equipped classic - that is both more expensive and weaker than the Efika - as seen here). Today it makes no sense (unless you just love silent and low-wattage computing) as there's a plenty of cheap and powerful Mac hardware available (provided of course you're not allergic to Apple hardware).

There's an article covering MorphOS on Efika here (I apologize in advance for Google Translator).

@smerf: See? You could probably get tone007's Efika for even less. Plus the shipping cost would be much lower.
