That has got to be the best implementation of an Amiga clone ever. That form factor is killer. Made so much sense it was never released...

I was tracking these things way back when they were in development, but I had no idea they ever made it to market until Red's sale a while back. I think they could have sold a ton of these if people actually knew they were available. So unfortunate...


Unfortunately marketing of the Amiga has always been a problem.............

I am thinking the mini-mig would be a good candidate.

Or even better the NatAmi! I can't wait for these things to come out. I've already started saving up for one :)

This board used the custom chips from a 1200, or at least some of them. I seem to remember reading that they couldn't get enough to build a lot of these.

How is an FPGA Amiga any more "real" than a UAE Amiga?

Actually is a nice idea if you wanna have a "real" (although hardware emulated) Amiga into a PC :)

I made the opposite some years ago
- A1200 in DBox Tower case
- VIA Artigo Pico-ITX kit (5 1/4 case)

I had a PC inside my miggy that runned windows XP just fine :)

What we\'re witnessing is the sad, lonely crowing of that last, doomed cock.

That sir is a hanging offence round these parts... ;)
Hahaha, I could agree on that if it wasn't so convenient back in the days that I used it :P
Also, I always loved mixed systems from the old days: A2000 030 with Commodore 386 bridgeboard, A4000 with GoldenGate 386 etc... :)

Real was inside quotes.
Apart from that, sales of Minimig or future FPGA Arcade and Natami can prove that most peepz will support and like FGPA efforts.
I don't have any issue with UAE since I so much love WinUAE and use it in daily basis. Enthusiasm over newly created hardware emulating our favorite hardware with features that we couldn't have back in the days... is another thing as opposed to plain software emulation (at least imho).
