I'am also writing a review. It is more like a diary now but I will need some time to do in depth tests before writing something interesting.

G4 upgrade for july   :-o
It's going to be a very interesting year  :-P

@JoannaK

Nice setup, good to see the desktop case isn`t dead. (most people use towers)

Have you installed your catweasel yet? Does morphos have drivers for it?

rock on red... I'd be very interested in reading your opinon (since it would probably be the most unbiased I've read yet)...

and am I to understand Wayne is getting a Pegasos even?... now that will be interesting to hear from.

Well.. it was more like accident, and I'm considering moving it to some more flashy  case later... Like when I upgrade to Pegasos 2.  :-D

Yep. It's on PCI slot and 3.5" drive is there too.  So far I have only found Pegasos drivers for Floppy controller, but I have heard rumours that Sidplayer would not be far away anymore.

CW3 Floppy controller works quite nicely,  I have only used it to read various Amiga and PC-HD disks. Only issue ( beta driver) I have found that sometimes it does not seem to recoglize diskchanges as automatically as it should. But it's not a biggie.

I will do a review aswell, but I will wait till update for MOS 1.3 has been released, and a week or two to that, as I want to give FULL review instead of first impressions.

MOS 1.3 is included with each system.

@Red & Wayne

Yes, you guys write reviews and add pictures (no dirty ones  :-) ), it will be a very interesting read.

@bbrv

Well what can i say about you guys?
You have released products which you said you  would and  people have received the goods, which is great to see in the Amiga community at long last.

The all talk and no action goes out of the window  :-)

Please develop a full report too. OK?! :-D


Ok, but if I may I'll write it first to Finish user club e-magazine (Saku)..

I like Pegasos more each day I use it. It ain't perfect system (yet), but after years of using windowse it's really nice to have something different.

The G4 upgrade will be available on 1 July ....  We will also be offering an incredible software bundle, because we want to have the happiest computer users in the world before the Pegasos II arrives... ;-)


G4 upgrade at July and even more bundles...  What could I say?



As a quick technical update for those interested. Thanks to supportative people at #morphos I got DVI-output to work on my Radeon 9100 graphics card. Now I have digitally connected 1600*1024 (24bit) Ambient screen on my 20" LCD ... Looks really sharp   :-D

I personally believe that desktops are the sexiest of all computers. I love the Amiga 2000 case, a true desktop tank.

@Damien
"MOS 1.3 is included with each system."

I know, I said "UPDATE for MOS1.3" :)
I am using 1.3 here but an update will soon be released.. which should fix some nasty things.

@redrumloa

A nice unbiased useful review from you will
do nicely thanks! Unlike some who are clearly
without a memory chip I recall a few times
that you have said you would consider/get one
when they were generally available. Don't forget
to upgrade as soon as you get it tho else you might
end up reviewing an older buggy version of MOS
rather than the new "bug free" ( until the next version
comes out and then that too will be dismissed
as buggy ) version.

@Groanos

Give it a rest, your blue troll muscle will get
sore if you carry on flexing it so much.
Hate figure. :lol:
