Wow, this is good news.  How about a new Peg with one of these and a 1.7GHz MPC7448! :shocked:

As for comparisons with the 8641/8641D.  The 7448 and 8641 are both based on the PowerPC e600 core (or two of them in the D).  But the 8641 has the advantage (?) of a much faster (integrated) MPX bus.  I'm not a chip guy so on paper the 8641/8641D looks much better, but there are probably real world factors that affect it's actual performance/usability.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

@billt

Actually, the 8641/8641D SoC has less pins than the MPC7448 alone.  Wouldn't this lessen the BGA fanout problems?  (Or, am I missing something entirely).
