You can call anything you want an Amiga, but it doesn't make it one...

As soon as you start replacing parts then it becomes tricky.

If you replaced the mother board in an a1200 with a brand new one that was software compatible with all amiga software, would it still be an amiga?

FPGA Arcade uses Xilinx, Apollo core runs on Altera.


They could port it. Shouldn't be a tremendously huge job, but there would be a few things to take care of. Slight variations on how to implicitly instantiate FIFOs, other memory elements, some hardwired items, perhaps a few other things I'm not thinking of at the moment. Should be a reasonable job for someone competent. It's really a choice of policy and if an agreement could be made between them...
