But I used thisas my main machine and browser for daily life and all pages that I visited including banks, news pages, tv broadcasts, shopping portals, retailers, Wikipedia вЂ¦ showed up fine.

You can run most of the software written for AmigaOS that follows the system standards and does not address hardware registers directly. MorphOS is different from Linux, it is in the tradition of AmigaOS. And of course if you registered and payed for your keyfile then it will not slowdown any more.

It certainly isnвЂ™t as fast as OS 9 (which you can install on these old G4s). I wonвЂ™t say that it is as pleasant to use or speedy as a Leopard or Tiger install. I ended up just pulling mine out, so I was able to get the G4 to boot off a flash drive. The other challenge is figuring out ways to load the OS in the first place since using a CD/DVD is likely the friendliest solution, but in my case and many others, the old slot loading CD/DVD drives in these PowerPC machines have reached the end of their life.

The one I have been utilizing to test some things out is MacBuntu, based off of Ubuntu 12 but with some newer software packages and more modern web browser options. He provides a few different versions, including one that is based off of Ubuntu 16 and works better on G5s. You wonвЂ™t find this one on the official Lubuntu pages, because it is maintained by вЂњwicknixвЂќ over on the MacRumors forum. One of the Linux variants that is available for PowerPC Macs is Lubuntu-Remix. If you are looking to extend the life of your G4 or G5 PowerPC machine, open source software is a valuable tool for interesting software packages that can provide better security and breath some life into our aging computers.
