PegasosPPC.com now online

Hmm, seems I was a bit quick there. However, dual G4 and single G5 was used in the advertising:


"Over here we have the CPU slot. You can put a board inside here, with a G3, a
G4, or a G5 on it, and there can be a maximum of 2 CPUs on the board. Over here
we have the memory connections, the IDE connector, the AGP connector, and the
PCI slots. Over here is the FireWire connector for internal usage, and on the
backside of the machine we see the two FireWire connectors for external usage."

From a certain film on aminet... So far I've seen single G3 boards, no more, no less. For the AmigaOne I've seen single G3 and G4 boards, and a dual G4 which is not yet shipping to end users.


"There's an IBM PPC 750 on it. And this is a G3 CPU, so it's one
of the lowest models of the Pegasos currently available with this card inside.
But soon we will have a double G4 in it."

Oh yes, you certainly will. Sorry bout that, but I just had to.

Anyway, this movie was in fact really funny, because noone had thought to remove the 3 minutes of debug in the OF when making a 5 minute film. So you have 1 minute of yada yada yada, then 3 minutes of nothing, then 1 minute of opening windows before end credits. Gee, that was professional.

Again, sorry. But one might see a tendency to market things a weeeee bit early from a certain company ;-)

And about staying for a MOS presentation: Nah, been too busy to worry about you guys. You can take care of yourselves.

You haven't been at WOASE then.

Yeah, almost as professional as presenting a text
based ExecSG kernel for two days at WOASE 2002

But hey, why argueing. Every company makes the
best out of it. The next step will be AmiWest 2002.
Will be very interesting indeed.

A pretty design à la "Apple.com". The html code looks clean too.

Just like www.maroctour.com :-D

Thanks for all the nice comments, by the way.

It's worth stopping by just to see what a well designed site looks like.

If it was well-designed, I wouldn't have had to cancel download in Mozilla after 80 seconds.

[Paul_Gadd]

Upload some pictures which actually show a pegasos in a tower/desktop instead of boring pictures of boards with a white background.

Very professional looking site.

Methinks this may be a problem not related to the site, as it works just fine in Mozilla here.

I agree site is nice desighn but there is nothing that would convince me to buy one.

Those who enjoy the Pegasos and MorphOS might wonder whether to be shocked, relieved, or cheerful...perhaps alternating though that spectrum like a copper toy ;  }...

Meanwhile: Congrats, Genesi web team! Great job! : }

strange, FAQ  explaines the April chip as expanding the capabilities of the Mai Articia S chipset, I thought it fixed serious bugs ?

Call it professional diplomacy. You don't post negative comments about other companies on your web site. Ergo, "fixes serious bugs" becomes "expanding the capabilities".  I commend the astuteness of the content editor for this policy.

(and yes, I too see how this contrasts to the unofficial web forum posts, but I've expressed my opinion on those elsewhere and see no need to do so again)

[uncharted]

Looks great here on Moz.

It does look like Apple.com a bit, but people say that as if that is a bad thing!

Very nice indeed :-)

[sTix]

Looks nice!

Makes me wanna buy one (seriously)

[Piru]

is it true you can use FFS2 on MorphOS?

Yes.

[AmigaHeretic]

Nice site.

Too bad they don't make or sell them anymore.

Amigaguy: According rumous, some resellers may have couple systems left so if you wanto to have one of these Pegasos-1.s you'll need to ask around.

But that site ain't made for these now sold systems.. it's for those that are soon to come (well.. I can't tell date, but like 3-4months Is what I have heard). There are no pictures of that new motherboard, but If I have understood correctly it should be same size and have at least same features as this now sold. (to be a bit better actually due enchanced technology).

Anyhow.. Nice looking site tha thas enough information for some reading.

[Andre.Siegel]

Too bad they don't make or sell them anymore.

Try KDH or Vesalia. At least one of both dealers should still have a few boards left.

@mdma

I wonder if there will be an http://www.amigappc.com ?

Merlancia already has that address..
