The fabled Amiga X1000 has been spotted in the wild, in the homeliest of places--Station X, a.k.a Bletchley Park. "The AmigaOne X1000 is a custom dual core PowerPC board with plenty of modern ports and I/O interfaces. It runs AmigaOS 4, and is supported by Hyperion, a partner in the project. The most interesting bit, though, is the use of an 500Mhz XCore co-processor, which the X1000's hardware designer describes as a descendant of the transputer - once the great hope of British silicon." With thanks to Jason McGint, 'Richard' and Pascal Papara for submissions.

Just to correct your erroneous statement but Pegasos runs all Amiga-Like Operating Systems. It runs also AmigaOS.
I knew it because I own a Peggy II. ;-)
No, Linux no, please... I don't want that Shi**y Geek-Only Operating System.
It is not friendly at all.
You must achieve a Computer Science Degree to learn how to full using it, or the alternative is to stay stuck with its basic features without any possibility of digging it and discovering all its power.
Studying for a Computer Science Degree to learn how to use an Operating System in its deep it is sorta like a nightmare!
That is why Amiga is perfect. It does not require a Computer Science Degree to be mastered by any user.
Linux is not an OS suitable for any people and for anyday use.
AmigaOS is good. MorphOS is good. AROS is good.
Also I hope that soon we will see a version of MorphOS running from its Q-Box even if this means to deprecate the Amiga A-Box.
At least the A-Box could run in sort of sandbox, or the Amiga API could be just run under complete emulation, so that Q-Box could reveal all its power!
