Pegasos (MOS) Advantage over AmigaOne (OS4)
« on: August 17, 2003, 08:46:47 AM »
Well I have been looking at the MOs/Pegasos system over the AmigaOne system a lot. I think the MOS solution has a huge advantage Over the new OS4 when/if it ever gets released. I still plan to wait since I dont have the cash and still have a kick ass classic system. Here are my thoughts:

1. MOS is out now, and is getting a lot of new developers on to it NOW.

2. The price for a FASTER and more capable Pegasos II is much better then the current A1 systems out, if you can even find one.

3. From what I have seen MOS just looks awsome! It started out PPC and has a lot of time in the real world getting bugs removed.

All in all if I had to choose today, I think I would go the MOS route. I have been an Amiga user since way back in 1989 when I got an A100, then an A3000 and still use that system today. How do you all feel about this? Do you think Amiga Inc is going to be hurt by the time between the two OS systems release dates?

Wow I knew I would get some flame, but sheesh!! I didnt start the thread to tell everyone "hey I love MOS!!"I did it the way I did to first put out why I was asking the question, "DO YOU THINK MOS BEING OUT NOW WILL EFFECT THE DEVELOPERS MOVING TO AOS" Which wasnt even looked at. I love the Amiga, I use it all the time and I could care less of those of you stating you dont care about my history with the amiga. I think Amiga Inc is doing itself a serious dis-service by not putting out Beta releases to show off like MOS has done.

For those that like my system, thanks. I have put a lot of money and time into it over the MANY years I have used it. I still plan to wait as stated. It would be stupid to go get a system now before both are out. I just hope both come out soon.

Does anyone know if Amiga Inc. will sell CSPPC cards or something to help get people on the OS4 train? I just wonder why they would release it first if that wasnt a plan.

True, to that last post. But hey we are all waiting and getting sick of the "its about here" crapAmigaIncis giving,and the lack of any information at all hurts. I would still say, even after my post I would end of getting an AMIGA and not a Pegasos system, but it is nice looking at a product for sale now.

I've been curious. How does one boot 68k Amiga software on a MOS system? Do you need to boot into an emulated system, or do you just install it and click like on a real amiga? I'd like some insight if you would give it.
