This board makes me curious.... it's got a Zorro interface on one side, and a pci on the other... I wonder if it's possible to plug it into a zorro slot, then access a pci card on the other side from the Amiga? Could be a cheap way to get a fairly good graphic card in a 2000...

Put your hope on the ColdFire-project  ;-)


Ahh, well... just a notion. I was thinking about getting a pci bus in the 2000 after reading the Coldfire project's page. I hopre they come up with something interesting. After reading their page, I did some web searching. I did find a 680x0 to pci interface that could be done with two (big) chips. (V3's V3-292PBC and a PLD for the curious) ..  Enough to make me think it could be done by someone more adept than I.  ;-)
