this is cool and i'm delighted when I see A2000 hardware developed but wouldn't you be able to bypass the Zorro 2 (& 8mb) bottleneck with some kind of genius FPGA CPU + GFX card in the CPU slot? But I suppose that would be a lot more expensive all round. Overall though, good stuff, as people have said it's not about competing with modern hardware, but it's still fun to push these machines as far as they can go.


My picture of a perfect Zorro 2 solution would be just that! Fast FPGA accelerator w/Graphics built in, SATA and an input for Standard Amiga modes from an indie ECS, also needs to lift the 8MB restriction on the Zorro bus like a good card should. Best of all worlds, still room on the bus for Sound card, USB and eithernet.
