The problem is the huge amount of work required to target the IP to a specific platform.
I agree that targeting new stuff like the USB chip requires new logic.
And getting a driver for the new logic will take time.
But the original AMIGA stuff like the
68K CPU, the AMIGA chipset, the planes, Sprites, Blitter, Copper, even RTG chipset
is more or less just drag and drop.
The keypoint is the memory bus.
If the design uses a standard ALTERA bus like AVALON,
then compiling the desing for the SOCKIT is really only drag and drop.
Also the VGA out chips are usally very easy to address
and adapting to another chip is not rocket science..
If the design uses a non standard bus - then you need to write a little bus bridge.
This is work of days but thats it then.
I compiled the CPu for the Sockit board - this was very easy.
You only need to create the proper PLL, and can compile it already.
Its work for 20 minutes including the compile time.
