@DarkGlobe

I understand your reasons.  I am rather saddened that you did not even try a Pegasos, or checked out one of the many public demos first.

The Pegasos is a PowerPC based motherboard, much like the AmigaONE, and comes with the AmigaOS compatible OS, MorphOS.  It comes with Firewire, USB, onboard audio including digital audio output, gigabit and 10/100  ethernet, and uses DDR-RAM.  

You can check it out here:

@Ryu

Would you rather them just fade into oblivion?  The majority say "there's nothing new" when, in fact, there is.  That Amiga user saved by having a choice that is availible today, namely the Pegasos and MorphOS, is another Amiga user you have a chance to sell AmigaOS 4 to when it comes out.

If our roles were reversed, I'd be happy that, if nothing else, the community retained a member, even if he broke the egg on the big end vs the little.  That gives me one more set of eyes to show my product to when it would come out.

Do you hate the thought that MorphOS is part of the community so much that you'd rather the person leave the community entirely rather than run "that other OS."
