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"?

:lol:

I thought on here you were only allowed to kiss Fleecy's backside!

If you support A1 you are "True Amigan', if you want value for your hard earned money, then you are "A troll".

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


If you ever get an answer to this, you'll be more lucky than I am...

Hopefully I did not wait for my mail to be answered to work on some MorphOS stuff ;( (=> UAE rulez !)

Léo.

This platform looks more & more attactive by the day..
It runs Amiga apps, MorphOS, linux, and MAcOS X.. Now
it's even in my price range.. Does the pegasos 2 come with Pro Station Audio?. even if its only at a discount, I'm still sold.

WEll I guess its decided then.  I'm buying the MOS/Pegasos combo.

Damn shame though, but the MOS guys just did it sooner and cheaper.

Alex, I just don't get the "damn shame" part. MorphOS and Pegasos developers and Genesi have worked their asses off and they've tried to work to a realistic business plan. One that looks beyond amigaland's habit of giving out the equivalent to mercy sex to companies that haven't really got much to entice a sane, attractive person.

Who knows, maybe MophOS and Pegasos will be able to score outside the community in a real way if they rely on realistic business practices to attract partners and customers - instead of preying on and praying for aforesaid Charity For The Pathetic mindsets, mindsets that have been fostered for all too long in this highly disfunctional community.

I know I got tired a real long time ago of making embarrased excuses for the tatty condition and gaping holes in my chosen platform. I hope that competitive and fully financed realistic business practices can make those memories far more distant yet.

Quite amazing that anyone get´s so excited about someone saying "We´ll release xxx in month yyy, and the price will be zzz".

Just a warning, don´t hold your breath!

Everybody makes promisses in this market. If you won´t feel like a being fooled around, then buy an existing product.

Everybody; Hyperion, Genesi, Eyetech, Etc., keep on saying they have products coming soon, they´ll have to, cause fewer people will buy the products of the others...

As I said: Don´t hold your breath!

Who said I think its "some loss"? Don't build a glass house on thin air either ( your second sentence ).
Hate figure. :lol:

Hey Hardboy!

Sorry to disappoint you, but we won't!

But, go ahead and hold your breath if you want!
