    Hi there,

    This is my first post.

    Well, I got a Mac Mini G4 two days ago. I booted Morphos 2.4 from cd. Everything seems to be ok. I'll try installing this weekend.

    I've been following Morphos for a while now. I can't believe I finally get to try it out!

    When will it stop?

    Cheers btw :-)

    Why that should be stopped? I don't get it at all.

    Fester: Welcome, I hope you will enjoy MorphOS that much that you will register it :)

    @pampers

    That was an irony, I too wish it wouldn't stop.

    At least until a notebook...

    Cool! :-)

    Got myself a Mini recently myself (will probably be buying the MorphOS license from the upcoming salary... :-))

    Don't be shy to ask questions here if you run into problems or wonder about something! There is always some helpful guy around...
    MorphOS is Amiga done right! :-)
    MorphOS NG will be AROS done right! :-)

    Hey Fester
    Congrats and welcome to the club! You can get great support here and on the irc channel. Do register Morphos though, it supports the devs, keeps the community going and lets you fully use morphos - now that OWB is getting mature Morphos can be a viable everday OS!

    Cool beans.

    I fully intend to register. I got the Mac Mini to run Morphos specifically.

    Saturday is coming up fast. I'm hoping to install it this weekend and get it registered.

    Thanks for the welcome. I'm sure I'll have questions. Up until now I had an Amiga 2000 with an Amiga Explorer hook-up to my PC, but the Amiga died recently. I have spare parts though...

    But I'd rather play with the Morphos on Mac Mini. This is a new ball game for me and I've been waiting for so long, you have no idea.

    Hey osco, go for that 99%! Buy a supported printer, they are offensively cheap these days. Really, are you forced to use that printer, is it for some specific purpose?

    Welcome Fester!

    Congradulations!
    As the last hold outs using Amiga hardware upgrade, smart people like you are relizing that the hardware supported by MorphOS is more powerful than the hardware currently supported by AmigaOS.

    ugh. I'm stuck.

    I have an A1243 keyboard. Doesn't work with Morphos.

    What keyboard is better in your opinion? The A1048 or the M7803?

    I am not sure about Apple keyboards, but from what everyone has been posting, most LMac compatible Logitech keyboards appear to work.

    I finally got a working keyboard! I installed MorphOS. This is actually my first post using OWB on MorphOS. I'm impressed. The browser works nicely so far. My Mac Mini boots really fast into MorphOs. Sent registration.
