If you have a look around on the E-UAE mailing list, there's some links to an Intel build of E-UAE for OSX if you're interested. No idea if it has the JIT compiled in though to be able to compete against Amithlon.

I know how you feel though, I haven't powered up my A4000 in something like 2 or 3 months, and then that was only to check something out on real hardware instead of relying on emulation on my iBook.
On schedule, and suing

Be sure to get at least a 23 inch screen, a 20 inch will feel small!

Maybe because he want's to use a system that is commercially viable and still supported. Having stuff that is a hobby is nice, but come on , some of us actually want to be able to use stuff that is supported by more then just a few select volunteers and hackers.

Macs are cool, I use a iMac G5 and Powerbook G4 1.67GHz all the time.  But sadly those are already outdated!!!

Hi,
AmigaCenter can repair and modify any amiga included AmigaOne (DMA/USB/NETwork modifcations...).
I don't understand why you buy a Mac ???
If you wanted a MAC PPC : buy a Pegasos2 and use the dual boot to get MorphOS+E-UAE and OSX PPC
If you wanted a MAC Intel : buy a last generation of Intel PC and put XP+WinUAE and OSX PC...


I get where you're coming from, but it is a breach of Apple's EULA to run OS X on anything but Apple hardware, and in the case of OS X Intel, you cannot even buy it separately so it would mean getting a pirated copy via P2P.  If you want to run Apple's OS, you should buy one of their computers.

It will only seem small to people that have the worse of eyesight. It's better then the big huge Sun (Sony Trinton GDM 20E20) monitor that I have sitting on my desk

  Since my understanding is the new(er)est Amiga OS versions can use a pci video card and a pci audio card and the Apple  pre-intel can use those,why is there not a bunch of Apple PPC machines running Amiga OS ?

Oh, license issues as well as existing contractual issues would prevent rebadging PPC Macs.  Then the financial issue, if the money was made available to pay for new license fees, who is going to buy a used mac for a cost of a new Intel based Mac to run OS4 on?
