Therefore, given the pricing of the 7447A and 7448, making your system 50% faster would cost more than the Pegasos itself to end-users. They would also have generated more than 50% extra heat and required heavier cooling solutions (bplan did have a passive 7447A cooler that would have worked though, tested up to 1.4Ghz).
Genesi suggested that idea not me..

It would cost about the same to make as a new computer from scratch, since it would also be.. from scratch.
Maybe as complicated on software side, but hardware would use much less
components.

Nothing, but why does everything Genesi does have to have anything to do with MorphOS?
I bought my Pegasos computer because Genesi announced it in conjunction
with MorphOS. There was ODW to run Linux at a first glance.
Not everything Genesi does might be related to MorphOS, but what kind
of business Genesi has apart from having sold and given away Pegasos
and Efikas? I hope you have success with any device you produce,
even more if it's able to run morphos.

You might note the "how many registrations" thread and extrapolate how much money MorphOS has made in the last 8 months and decide if working with MorphOS can fund everything that you want to use MorphOS
I might then bet my head that MorphOS or Genesi are on the wrong market, wrong platform, and wrong devices if they are thinking into
serious business.
Here the only reality is that we have MorphOS2.2 running on our
Pegasos G3/G4 and Efikas, myself still not registered.
1.4.5 was free to me except for my donation to the USB stack programmer (C. Hodges)
That it's terribly expensive to support.
Small comunity, high prices,
no hardware replacement
in case of hardware disaster.
The registrations number must be compared, to the total number
of Pegasos and Efikas sold, data which I don't know.
And the number of registrations seems to be near 500, too much
in my modest opinion.
One simple Question. Mac took over Intel hardware.
It was so hard to translate this platform to an X86 model, or maybe
yo thought it was no business at all?
