If you look at the pitures of the AmigaOne you can see the brand/model of the NorthBridge.
Here is a link that give you more information about it.
I like particularly this article that says Pentium 3, Pentium 4 performance at half the price.
The Amigaone look to be exactely a Teron CX.
Lets just hope that YOU guys order enough AmigaOne to get lower and lower prices.
I guess Bplan used the Articia S to build the Pegasos.

Posted by Graham on 28-Feb-2002 01:35 GMT | In reply to Comment 55 (Dr. Righteous): Yes, I must agree that the price is nice. Imagine what Eyetech could do with volume like the iMac gets?
The iMac also only uses naff ATI Rage graphics and 100MHz FSB and memory, IIRC. No floppy or zip or 17" monitor by default either, but I think you have taken that into account with your prices already.
That is part of the power of the AmigaOne - we can choose the components we want in it, unlike the iMac which is a take it or leave it box. The AmigaOne is not as good as the PowerMac board though, but that has up to 2 1GHz CPUs on it. Maybe by the time OS5 is out we will have similar boards but faster...
