Without anyone ever really addressing the elephant in the room, why are we not going to support the final, best PPC Mac?
Because:
1. The standard configuration contains incompatible gfx card, and we don't like flashing;
2. Some additional drivers are required, mainly Ethernet;
3. Some additional coding/hacking/reverse engineering the hardware is required, e.g. fan control, CPU voltage etc;
4. Who needs another PPC anyway? x64 support is nigh!
5. Did I say we don't like flashed gfx cards?
(above points - well, except for the number 4 - are a summary of my correspondence with some of the MorphOS team members)
