I know all too well about Rabbit Holes. hahahaha
For now I think I am good but did own a PM G5 2ghz model back in the day. Owned for 5 years until it pooped out. Sold it cheap. Should have tried to fix it.
Cool about the dual monitor on MorphOS. Is it extended monitor like on a Mac OS system? That would be nice. My 2 displays are close enough I could probably try that. Just need a 2nd DVI to HDMI cable is all.
btw, what video player is used these days? Still MPlayer on MorphOS?
Last night I used SMB and connected my X5K via MorphOS to my NAS and grabbed (very slowly) a 300MB mp4 video to then play on my system. What app do you all use to play videos? Did not appear to know how to handle the mp4 I had.
Thanks

*note, that 300mb fiel grabbed from my NAS took 7+ minutes to get copied over. It is an older NAS, slower ethernet port on it but on my linux system a 300mb file takes a fraction of that time if memory serves. Will have to test that more.

AmigaOne X5K & MorphOS & Dual Boot... Oh My!
This is stage 1 of my efforts to make my AmigaOne X5K boot both the Amiga OS 4.1 and MorphOS 3.18.
This is the 1st video about my plans, my system, some peaks inside, and 1st boot (from MorphOS Installer USB Stick) after installing a 2nd Video Card in my X5000.
Long video but hope some find it fun!
https://youtu.be/ZpwUkdsYGpUI would most likely reference the kids story with the rabbit hole and not the animals, as I bet in under a year you find room on your desk and buy a PowerMac 2.5 PCIe or 2.7 PCIX :)
That is my prediction anyways!
Don't forget to connect a second display to the other display port on the X1950, dual monitor is very good with MorphOS these days. Try out Iris, Pagestream, and PolyOrganizer as well, since you mentioned trying some productive tasks with it. They are a great app set. More than a few MorphOS users use it as their daily driver and can do work with it.
Since you haven't used in 8 versions or so, a lot has gotten better. So check out the native apps, they work very well. You will need to upgrade both wayfarer and iris to the latest versions and they will begin to auto update afterwards.
Nice video apu, always enjoy watching your content.
