I like MOS and the Pegasos is an impressive board, just as good as the XE it seems.

But I have my own idea of where MOS is going and I don't want to go there. This isn't to say it doesn't have a future, it does. But if I bought a Pegasos and waited 3 years down the line I have a very strong suspicion that the only software for it would be rather poor Linux ports. This is MY OPINION, so flames will be ignored or ridiculed.

I'd rather see what OS4 has to offer first.

I hear bleating. Could it be the PC sheep again? I really don't know why they bother coming to an Amiga site. Oh, I forgot - the PC has no community. Figures.

sticking to PPC only is a dead end for anyone... that is very narrow minded and zealous of them and if they hope to have a real future they should move to hardware people can afford and will want to buy...


It may be narrow minded, but at least it's showing some glimmer of independent thought, and a will to keep the Amiga apart from the scourge of computing - the corporations. Thinking suddenly changing AmigaOS to x86 will save it is both naive and selfish. You have PCs, run Windows on them like the were designed for and stop trying to drag us down with you. If the Amiga has to die, let it die with Intel and AMD on the outside.

No more naive and selfish than thinking we have to throw away our future as a platform just to keep the speed freaks and cheapskates happy.
