i was waiting for the new pegasos with MPC8610D but seems it will be awhile before it comes out. thinking i might try the current efika with linux and morphos to see how i like it. i have never used amiga.
can it play movies with linux or morphos? since efika doesnt have a dvd drive, i will probably mount it over nfs.
i read that linux with X is kinda slow, if i can web browse, play music, and check email i think i will be fine. i use xfce4 now. anyone try windowmaker on it?

Efika + Linux = not suited for X desktop env. Efika have **only** 128Mb (which to my taste is a bunch of memory...) and somewhat limited horsepower. Depend on how you spend it... My experience shows 50% cpu consumption for moving the mouse pointer over a firefox window. Efika + Linux = well suited for server (read : console). If can manage to live with a glued user interface... I can't ;)
Some vids shows morphos playing dvd like quality stream fluent. Don't expect HD. Efika + Morphos = suited for desktop env. Efika + Morphos = not suited for server.
Choose your side :)
