AmigaOne runs MacOS 9.2?

Ok so it was really Yellowdog PPC Linux and MacOnLinux that ran MacOS 9.2, and he had to take the hard drive out of his PowerMac that already had 9.2 installed on it. But at least it is one step closer to running MacOS on the AmigaOne system.

Now that's worth AT LEAST another $2-5k!
Apple needs to feel some heat on the price side of things.

Note that there are X86 based Amiga systems as well as PPC ones. The Amiga has transcended just one platform and with the Amiga Anywhere project, their goal is to run AmigaOS or AmigaOS technologies on almost any platform. So basically this is just the opposite of what Apple is trying to do, the Amiga team doesn't want to be locked into just one platform or standard.
<strong>The Amiga does not need to run MacOS stuff, why run crap? The Amiga applications are much cleaner and have a better performance than the Macintosh ones. Ever wonder why Amiga based Mac Emulators run MacOS code at 1.5 times the speed of a Mac with the same speed chip? It is the design of the Amiga that is superior. Would a Playstation 2 user want to run Sega Dreamcast games? Not really, and he wouldn't care about the Sega Dreamcast either. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> </strong><hr></blockquote>
Amiga based Mac Emulators do NOT run MacOS code at 1.5 times the speed of a Mac with the same speed chip. Wtf, what are you smoking? You do know that a lot of the later (modern) PPC Amiga hardware still uses PPC 750cx based processors, like the AmigaOne.
I'm not bashing Amiga or Mac on Linux, etc, I'm just saying that emulation does not work that way and your statement is not valid.
