Pegasos II vs AmigaOne

[rayt]

I think I will run OS4 on my A4000/PPC and will maybe buy an MicroAone when it comes out. It looks very interesting.
I would of course also use morphos on my cyberstorm if they had released it like they promised last year.

@ IonDeluxe

What I dont like is the image they promote as "supporting the Amiga community" when in fact what they are doing is hijacking that said community to support themselves in direct competition to the real amiga solution.

I don´t think so. Look what say said about the amiga and pegasos on morphos-news.de/ann.lu:

"In the meanwhile, what is the market for the Pegasos (while the eclipsis is in development)? Probably: 1) Linux users, 2) embedded system developers, 3) application developers that want to do rendering on stacked boards with dual processors or build something very special that has a huge amount of processing power... "

"Will "Amiga" be a big market for us? We do not think so. First, because we are not an official Amiga piece of hardware, and secondly because we are using MorphOS. The two just don't go together."

They also did not pay their advertisement on ann.lu anymore and I havent seen a pegasos banner on amiga.org for a long time either. So maybe they already found their new market? :-o

* Faster AGP. Forget that it's labelled x1, thanks to Articia its still faster than AmigaONE x2 AGP.

How do you know that? Just because Bill Buck said so? Or is there a proof for that?

@Acill

Not to mention you can go to just about any hardware store and find memory for the Peg system

I doubt you can do that. The Pegasos2 does not support every DDR module. Here you can see a few ones that work/don´t work though.
