Well the efika isnt that much faster (in mhz), its a more modern cpu, and probably a lot more mips, but it's still horribly underpowered, so is the 500 euro sam :\
The Efika is quite a lot faster than a Blizzard or Cyberstorm. The cpu itself is faster and the memory interface is a lot faster.
I know the performance of MOS on a Blizzard (I had a 200MHz version) it was quite useable, but dead slow in comparision to my Peg1.
On Efika MOS feels** about as fast as on a Peg1 instead.
Indeed it is fun to use MOS on an Amiga, but in the end those maschines are old and slow. -thy are a dead end. I'd rather suggest to get an Efika. It's cheap and new and surprising fast.
**) It *feels* that fast, the system is as snappy as on a Peg1, of course when doing real calculations - say run DNET or such stuff - you'll recognize who's got the bigger balls

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
