Ok right now im stuck.
What should i get?
a Apollo 1260 or a Pegasos I?
If you have the chance to obtain a Pegasos, go for it. Look, I am a long time Amiga user, but I sold off all my 68k hardware (except the A600)since I own a Pegasos.
But the Pegasos and 68k are indeed two slightly different pairs of shoe. The Pegasos can do a lot of modern things at decent speed, where the 68k maschines are more for the old stuff.
The 68k maschines are fun - but they are what they are: old!
That doesn't should sound negative, but honestly the maschines are expensive, limited and they can die every second.
The Peg1 is a bit difficult to start with (it takes a while until you get a good MorphOS setup), but much more powerfull than the old maschines. And it is way lesser buggy than many think. I have a Pegasos1 Aril 1 and I very rarely get crashes. HD file corruption I never observed.
The Pegasos is silent, fast and (relatively) young. The G3 cpu does not get very hot (this extends the average lifespan of this device quite a lot).
In the end the only limitation of the Pegasos is your imagination.
A very good alternative to a Pegasos1 would be the Efika. Not now, but wait a couple of weeks and MorphOS will be available for that little board.
To make it short: Get a Pegasos while you can.
I use the Pegasos since more than 5 years and never ever regretted a single second to have chosen that maschine.
