So here, without further ado, is how you can join the “Amigalike” renaissance-or just play around with a different OS for a few hours. Not only does it run MorphOS native programs, but also a large selection of programs written for AmigaOS. For them, MorphOS is a boon because it extends the OS platform with which they’re most comfortable (AmigaOS) into a new generation of relatively modern, low-cost, and high-powered machines (PowerPC Macs).Īnd unlike some cottage OSes, MorphOS brings with it a large library of very usable software, much like a modern Linux distribution. In this big world of ours (mostly Europe), there still exist. Some people do use MorphOS as their daily computing workhorse. It’s a hobby a fun diversion-for most, anyway. “Why would I want to do that?” For the same reason you might build a life-sized replica of Iron Man in your basement. FS-UAE works on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and OpenBSD. FS-UAE integrates the most accurate Amiga emulation code available from WinUAE. If you get a G4 you could also dual-boot OS9 and run classic Mac games If you run osx, you can run classic 9 stuff in classic mode included provided your processor arch matches. MorphOS runs on pretty much any G4 and some G5s, now. With a simple download and a CD-burn, you can turn an aging G4-era Macintosh into a modern day Amiga-compatible machine. For that we can thank, a free-to-try Amigalike operating system developed by Amiga and PowerPC aficionados.

But we now live in a far more civilized age-one where Macs and Amigas can walk together, hand-in-hand, along the sandy shores of computerburg. Long ago, Mac fans and Commodore Amiga fans fought like mortal blood enemies.
