Let me introduce myself - long-time Amiga fan, AROS groupie but by no means developer material from Down Under.

It looks like MOS 2 release is imminent. How things have changed with time! I really want to get on with something that can be used.

Should I wait for next release of MOS (in hope it may be bundled with updated hardware - EFIKA 2 perhaps) or should I just get EFIKA now? The mobo itself is fairly reasonably priced but the whole package i.e. the Open Client products are a pricey and it is certainly looks underpowered when compared to old Pegasos boards.

How does XGI Volari V3XE graphics compare to ATi 9250 that everyone here seems to be recommending? My understanding is that XGI has a better driver support (open sourced drivers) and is a more capable card overall? Is it worth the price? Alternatively, can someone point to a good source of low-profile 9250 in Australia?

Thanks.
