b) MorphOS is currently in public beta


Beta implies pre-version 1.0

MorphOS is in version 1.3.

Anything else?


Have to disagree with you here.. Beta status is not defined by some semirandom version number, it's about product readiness.  

But in case of complex system (like OS + tools) it's difficult to define.. I'd say partially yes and prtially no, but I'll think it's better to stick what Genesi consideres accurate.

MOS will probably never support them - the catweasel is there for them and does the job *much* better anyway.

Great so people that buy the Pegasos will have a place to plug in their floppy on the mother board but to get it to work with MorphOS you got to buy catweasle.

If that is the case I hope USB floppy drives would be a work around.


Well.. those Usb-drives don't work on Amiga disks either so most important point on having diskette drive is moot anyhow. It's much easier and faster to transfer data using network or USB-memory-module than floppies anyhow.
