Better keep my wallet in my pocket then.  I was gonna buy a Peg 1 this weekend.

@BBRV
Will there be a developers discount on the G3 and G4 Pegasos II's?

All offers of course also include the CPU card (the
trade in offer too!). So the prices are incl. CPU Card
(either G3 or G4).

Absolutely fantastic. This is a real company with real ambitions beyond the Amiga market. I have always been critical of companies operating in "The Amiga market" who follow the philosophey of charging astronomical prices just because they can.

This is very, very aggresive pricing for the type of product it is. Major kudos! :-)

These are mind blasting prices in Amiga terms. These times I hear it mostly from others referring to something else, but I admit I have to join the choir: "Can't wait!"  ;-)

I have to confess, at these prices the Peg2 does look very, very good indeed.  Looks like I`ll be buying both an A1 and a Peg2 after all  :-)

Yes, very nicely prized indeed. Too bad it won't run AOS4 or I
would perhaps be interested.

EXACTLY Warface. Isn't it irritating when people drop in a thread and do something like that?

If you can't point it out to someone in words,  demonstrate.

QED.  ;-)

I can't, in good consious spend $700 on a G3 motherboard, when a better motherboard is being sold for $300.

AOS or no AOS, at these prices, I would buy a pegasos, in fact, its only been the lack of availability or I would have one already.

Someday, when you can grab your credit card, check the in-stock levels at the website, buy a board knowing it will be shipped the same day and delivered the next.

Then all it takes is one moment of indescretion and the pegasos is sitting on your porch the next day!
Which btw, is also, how I got married...WHOA...nelly, backup ....I didn't mean that.

But it is why I have a brushed aluminum silver case on the way, and for some odd reason, a towerized A1200 on the way as well.... :-o

Or perhaps they could claim the trademark "Amiga", previously owned by Amiga Inc (but abandoned January 3, 2003) for use in:

"computer software used to facilitate development of software applications that can run on multiple platforms and other electronic devices; operating system software for personal computers and other electronic devices"

:-o

Note: I don't have a clue about this. I know nothing about the procedures in regestering trademarks, I only read this att ann.lu.
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)
