I'm with you on that one.
My Quicksilver Powermac cost me $15 and all I had to do was re-seat the processor board.
Upgrading to a 933MHz processor cost me another $15.
I already had PC133 memory, DVD drives and hard drives on hand.
My SB Live and my NEC USB 2.0 card cost me $5 each.
My Radeon 9800XT was $25 (I re-flashed a PC card).
My only really expensive purchase was an OWC 1.47GHz 7455 processor (which I could have avoided by buying an MDD instead of a Quicksilver).
Yes, MorphOS hardware is cheap.
