* Electra: First development/eval board. Funky USB on localbus, plenty
of PCI-e. Two GigE, one 10GigE XAUI. CompactFlash and IDE on localbus
too. Usually shipped with a PCI-e SATA card and a USB card.

* Chitra: Second edition dev/eval board. Moved SATA and USB on-board,
and removed some of the localbus hardware. Might have routed three
GigE out instead of 2, can't remember.

* Athena: Never released board with a smaller package chip, there's
only a few of these around. Can't comment too much on the specifics,
but it's similar to Chitra, and the silicon is the same.

FYI:

* Nemo: Released as AmigaONE X1000. With co-processor: "Xena" 500 MHz 
XCore XS1-L2 124 SDS

Is still in stock: http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/x1000/?webpage=buy.

It means you could buy a new PA6T system with active Linux support. It 
runs the latest kernel 4.0-rc3
and the new ubuntu MATE 15.04 PowerPC on this board.
