Well he says he doesn't want to replace his windows box... PegasOS and AmigaOne are pretty similiar really, OS4 is only out as a prerelease (but thatt's free on the upside). MorphOS is free with the computer, and is on version 1.4? 1.5?. Both have support for Linux. There is a DMA issue right now with the AmigaOne board but as far as I know that's being fixed, Eyetech don't want that as they are trying to sell the boards for Linux, much as the pegasos boards are being sold as linux machines. Outside of those two OSs I don't know what the AmigaOne supports, but pegasos supports a few different OSs for sure. The G4 pegasos is 1GHz and the G3 is 600MHz, AmigaOne XEs are both 800MHz (G3 and G4). Pegasos has some onboard bits that MorphOS doesn't support, same as the AmigaOne and OS4. There seems to be more publicly stated development for the PegasOS. Both use IDE drive controllers with PCI slots. Judge for yourself which is better  8-) .
