Hi,
for games i guess the hyperion powerpc ports works pretty well, wipeout and quake atleast, not much of a gameplayer
myself, but i've seen wipeout on efika...runs pretty good :)

for word processing.....whats wrong with Ed ? :)

yeah..Mame kicks ass.....or Metal Slug series do

for movies, what happends when you try playing a movie ?

getting online with serial port sounds horrible, you should get ethernet up and running, invest in a router that can
do all the adsl modem talk, and just plug efika into that.
Dont really know if the morphos tcp stack can do dialup
even, you might get stuck with older amiga software like miami with no way of getting a keyfile.
As a backup solution there is usbmodem.device in morphos usb stack that might support modem with your
mobilephone, i use that as a emergency solution when needed and just dial *99# and use the gprs or 3G internet
available from phone, but that might get expensive :)

Diamonds game included should be deleted, wife got addicted to it and sits for hours :)

Floppies...its 2008...

burning i dont have clue about either, MakeCD or FryingPan might work, but i have no idea if efika's ide performance is good enough.

Its a fun toy, but without internet connection i would get
bored too, being able to just sit down with a cup of coffie and surf or read emails, playing some sid's in the background with a computer that draws about 5 watts or so is just cool.
