Hi all,
  I was wondering if there's a Pegasos 3 MB in the works, and if so, will Morph OS still support Amiga OS 3.X or even 4??? ( Yea, right, wishfull thinking )

A new Motherboard with two dual core IBM 970MP processors is in the works and scheduled for Q3/2006.
There is still no statement by the MOS team whether the board will be supported or not...
If interested in MOS I'd go now for a PegII. That maschine is ideal for MOS, available and does not cost too much.

I was also wondering if you could use a Kickstart 1.3 disk in Morph OS to make the older A500 games work?

 


No, but for old stuff you can use euae. For apps from the 1.3 days euae is fast enough. Main prob with taht old apps is not the OS, but they are banging the hw directly. The OS <2.0 was not that feature rich...

@ Amije

Where do you have that price tag from? The ODW (full computer based
on PegIII mobo) is scheduled for US$ 1500 for the initial sale. Later
price drops may occur.

The ODW includes the PegasosIII mobo, drives, case, gfx and memory.
