"Ummm. Yep. That's my point. But at first they claimed they were not leaving the desktop behind. THEN they changed directions. Just like Genesi have changed directions with the Pegasos. Now it will not be what they claimed to all of those who purchased. But you say, "yeah but they can upgrade for $200" So what? That was never the original plan, hence they have changed plans. What's to say they will not do it agian before September?"


You know what is a scary thought, that maybe Eyetech may change plans too?  I am not sure what to make of this Aritica chip???  I hope that Eyetech has a better working relationhip with Mai Logic.  I hope that they were/are able to reslove any problems with the Aritica chip.  If not then maybe they will need to change thier plans??

Just some of my thoughts

" I don't think this is as likely. The Terron boards are being marketed by Terrasoft for the Linux market, and Eyetech for the Linux and Amiga market. The Teron boards and the Articia have recieved IBM's "Ready for IBM Technology" approval. See link below.

Thanks for the site.  This is good news :)


"So I don't think the Teron series will be disappearing anytime soon. I do hope, however, that they are already working on the next revision using the newer Articia P bringing AGP4x and DDR among other things. "

Yes, that would be great to see a path to upgrade to it.
