First News about Pegasos 2

[DaveP]

That WOULD be funny ;-) I could go around calling you a faithful follower of The Name cult ;-)

[bloodline]

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

Or Genesi, could buy that particular Tradmank (relating to development of software applications that can run on multiple platforms and other electronic devices; operating system software for personal computers and other electronic devices )

and then allow The AROS team to use it (as they said they would). Afterall AROS allows the "development of software aplications that can run on multiple platforms"  :-D. It's also an "Operating system for Personal Computers and other electronic devices"

Good idea! :-D

[Wilse]

Hopefully i'll get my peg1 to boot before trade in time! :lol;

Along with MorphOS 1.4, the Pegasos is gonna kick some butt.

£250 for motherboard and CPU.  That's too tempting, I will be buying one.

Any details about AGP, PCI, on-board I/O, etc?

I'd be hoping for AGP4x at the very least, and several PCI slots (maybe even a couple of 64-bit 66MHz PCI slots given the Marvel northbridge specs). USB2? Firewire? Ethernet? Audio? SATA? IDE?

At the current exchange rate of £0.61 to the US$, it's £214.31 including the VAT!

Bye bye AmigaOne. :-P

Anyone who buys an A1 after these babies come out is an absolute fool, and has more money than sense.

If Genesi can deliver at this price they'll be making some serious cash I'd say :-). Is this also cheaper than comparable macs (if you count int the box/HD/keyboard etc)?

[DaveP]

Making some serious cash? How do you know this isn't a loss leader?

[odin]

Hmm, you've got a point there. Nevertheless I'd imagine at 300EUR it'll be a great deal for a lot of folks. Perhaps Genesi has some sort of licensing scheme coming up?

What was the price of a Peg I btw?

There is a trade-in discount for Pegasos-1 board users upgrading to Pegasos-2, I think.

Might as well wait, as i'll need to buy DDR RAM for the Peg2, and I want a G4 now I know it's available! :-D

[amigamad]

Great news but still no final release of morphos when they release a final version and bring the price down to pc levels then ill buy one. :-o

[bloodline]

Bill?  Rachel? Bill, again?

Did you not see? You can legally purchace an AMiGA Trade Mark that covers AROS!!! Isn't this great news  :-D

And how did you figure out that I'm Matt Parsons? I like to keep my identity secret and go by my super-hero name... Bloodline... :-D

> How do you know this isn't a loss leader?

Why do you think it's some loss? Because someone
once said that "a PPC mainboard with a G4 CPU can
never ever be available for 499EUR"?
