MorphOS on iMac G5
I speculated not long ago that MorphOS may be silently supporting iMac G5 machines. If so, this would be great, as the 20″ version has one of the fastest G5’s ever made (2.1Ghz) and one of the best Radeon’s that is supported by MorphOS (X600).
Someone wrote up a guide on Morph.Zone recently. Sounds like the only real thing missing is the boot up logo page.

MorphOS 3.13 out!
