@ Rob

Not much is known about the Pegasos II specifications, but one
of the few things that IS known is that *it will have* AGP (of
course!). AFAIK, AGP in Pegasos II will be implemented pretty
much the same way as in A1/Pegasos I.
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

Not at all!

The Marvell 6436x series do not have any support for AGP.


Not that unusual actually. But this is something that concerns only the mobo designers and it's nothing the end-users needs to think about.

64bit 66mhz PCI is AGP equivalent, in terms of throughput but you find AGP cards on the market, and not many 64bit 66mhz PCI graphics cards,

If such cards exist the demand for them must be vanishingly small. How many systems implement a 64-bit 66MHz PCI slot and don't have AGP?


AFAIK, neither will the Pegasos II. AFAIK, it will not have 64-bit 66MHz, but it will definitely have AGP.
