Hello DaveP.
Kenny, it is not like you to go around posting unsubstantiated flamebait bollocks so please substantiate away or stop posting something so inane.
Why is "Pegasos a superior board"?
There are innumerable postings on Ann on this subject (none of them very convincing or readable, thanks in part to anonymous cowards), so I'll just state my own opinion.
The main advantage that the Pegasos is cheaper. Quite a lot cheaper. Then there's firewire, the fact its micro-ATX for portability, the general manufacturing quality...yeah, all done before and still arguable. And there's still the whole contraversial subject that the A1 might still have the DMA bug gratis of Articia - again, done to death, so I won't go there either. I'll just say that "But it works here." is a phrase I detest coming from any betatester, especially betatesters who don't do any detailed tests. And before you say it, Pegasos has loads of 'em too - far too many.
In essence, it was nothing to do with the Pegasos: it was a less-than-subtle swipe at the people who refuse even to look at the two boards and compare them, and rather would buy A1 just because it has the name. They are really pissing me off, not least because they are strangling the Amiga with dumb mid-90s style blind prejudice, but also because of many of their simple-minded comments. "Wow, if Doom3 was on the A1 people would really buy Amigas again!" and "A1 is a real Amiga because Fleecy says so and everything else sucks!" and the famous "When OS4 comes out the good old days will come back!"
