i noticed a new video on aminet:
http://www.aminet.net/pix/mpg/Pegasos.mpg
"This is a demo video of bPlan's Pegasos computer. The video has been created by Thendic-France to give an impression of how the machine runs."
the download is still in progress, but i'm sure it will finish to convince all amiga users thats the ppc amiga they are waiting since years is finally arrived

the next ppc amiga : Comment 110 of 359 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Graham on 19-May-2002 18:52 GMT | In reply to Comment 106 (Ole-Egil): It has a VIA 8231 southbridge, which is an updated version of the 686B, or a downgraded version of the 8233, depending on how you look at it.
I.e., the basic features are roughly the same, the 8231 has integrated ethernet that the 686B doesn't have, hence the Pegasos can have onboard Firewire whereas the AmigaOne uses an onboard 3COM ethernet chip to provide network.
No real problem, you can get Firewire/USB2 combo-PCI cards now if you need either or both of these interfaces, or Firewire on the Audigy or Radeon8500 anyway.
