    Thanks for the support xyphoid.

    I just got off the phone with someone from Genesi and I must say that all my questions were answered to my satisfaction and more. I was very surprised to get the call, and I have more respect for Genesi now than I have ever had before for any Amiga related company.

    I will not quote what was said without asking his permission out of respect, though nothing secret was talked about, to my knowledge.

    As others have pointed out, programming for MorphOS has been done in the past on machines with the same, or less memory than I now have on my EFIKA, so I will start with what I have got and go as far as I can. As I stated before, as a beginning programmer, it will likely take some time before I am working on projects large enough to create a problem on my EFIKA. By then, hopefully all of us will have new hardware available to us, to run MorphOS on, be that a MacMini, or the next step in small, efficient MorphOS computers.

    I am going to stop regretting my choice to purchase an EFIKA and make the best of it. I bought it because MorphOS is the best "future AmigaOS", and what it lacks is software to bring us more MorphOS users, not just different hardware. I can't help on the hardware side, so I will do my best to learn more about programming for MorphOS and help where I can with new software. I hope that more members here will do the same.

    Edit: xyphoid keep it quiet about which MacMini is the only one to come with the 64mb Radeon graphics card! Are you trying to drive the prices of them up, or what??? They are hard enough to find as it is right now. I have been keeping a watch on them just to see if I can get lucky and find one for about $200 US dollars, which is about half of what they are selling for on eBay.
