I'm happy MorphOS runs on minis, but good grief, it needs to run on {i,Power}Books more (and the hardware is so similar between minis and iBooken that I can't believe they're not doing this or at least not planning to). There are plenty of POWER desktop form factors but very few laptops.

I know I would be limited to AmigaOS 3.x on a 68K, and I would be fine with that if the Natami were significantly better/higher performance. Still, 4.0 is pretty practical as an OS. I played with a SAM Flex at the last Commodore fair I went to and found I could do most of my daily tasks including net access (Origyn, Timberwolf, etc.). If I didn't have such a huge Mac investment I'd probably switch to Amiga, and if MorphOS gets certified for iBooks then I will be putting it on my spare for sure.

Btw, got my POWER6 server coming soon! I wanted a POWER7, but this will still do nicely. (2-way 4.2GHz)
