Amiga in a 3.5 Inch Bay

[mfilos]

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

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
Also, I always loved mixed systems from the old days: A2000 030 with Commodore 386 bridgeboard, A4000 with GoldenGate 386 etc...

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

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).
