The Pegasos is "newer" (not really in age) because they took
the TeronCX-design, and changed it nearly 100% to get the max. out
of the chips, while the A1 is just a slighly updated version of
the TeronCX.

The A1 is NOT a PoP-board as Hyperion plan to remove the OF-BIOS
(whicj was extremly buggy) and replace it with OpenBoot (sp),
which makes the whole board non-PoP.

The Pegasos is a PoP-baord with a self-developed OF-BIOS which
includes support for FFS-partitions (to boot from) and
"Disk_on_Chip" devices (probraly the 1st step to the eclipsis).

Oh and yes Pegsos+G4 is a reality, but only with the ZIF-carrier
and a G4-ZIF atm.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

The Pegasos is uses the same northbridge as the A1, on the southbrigde
is a standard VIA-model (one generation ahead of the one use in the A1).

Linux does run on that board.

When Hyperion (are able to) buy a Pegasos, they have the full spec of
the main chips, and an open-source OS to look at.
Thats more than they have on the CS-PPC.
