    On this new Freescale "community" site for Linux PPC development, I see news items about both the new CPU's and the Pegasos ODW.

    Seeing that on the same page got me thinking (more like dreaming ;-)); would it be possible to use any of these CPU's with the current Pegasos motherboard?

    I guess the MPC7448 would be most suitable? The MPC8641 and MPC8641D looks extremely cool, but they include on-board controllers that the Pegasos could not use/have no use for anyway, right? I'd say to bplan, if you are making a CPU card upgrade for the Peg, forget the 7447A and go for the 7448 instead! ;-)

    And BTW, those Next-Generation PowerQUICC III Processors looks cool too? Hasn't there been some talk about iPods and similar (but more powerful) "Eclipsis kind of" devices? Would these CPU's be suitable, or would the MPC8641 or MPC8641D be better?

    Hmm ...
    MorphOS is Amiga done right! :-)
    MorphOS NG will be AROS done right! :-)
