Pegasos or A1?

[Kay]

I would go for the A1. I think AmigaOS4 will be better than MOS (based on their respective featurelists and teams for each product), and considering the current relationship between Genesi an Amiga, I don't think AOS for Pegasos is coming anytime soon. Furthermore, I believe that AmigaOS has a better chance of survival than MOS.

The Pegasos looks nice, and it is more attractively priced, but without AmigaOS, I would not invest money in it.

Just my opinion, hope I haven't offended anybody too much. :-)

Well, it's been a while since I formed that opinion, and I can't be arsed to re-read both lists just to give a detailed defense of it to a Thendic employee. Still, I think I can give a few keywords. Good stuff in AOS:
-Warp3d NOVA
-P96 (as opposed to CGX)
-That new TCP/IP stack ("Roadshow"?)
-Reaction rather than MUI
-VAA (Virtual Addressing Architecture, which could be used for one of my dream features: transparent AGA emulation (I asked HJF about this))
-Advanced AmiDock

Anyway, there might be more, this is just what I could pull out of the hat right now. Bottom line for me anyway, is that I felt more impressed after reading the AOS list than I did after reading the MOS list.

Yeah, I'm sure curiousity is your primary motivation...;-)
