A project I'd like to see from Jens...

You know what would be hilarious?  Turning FPGA's into manufactured ASIC's!

[danbeaver]

Yeah, turn an A2000 into an ASIC!

...And I think the small yellow case is nice.  Granted it in only VGA output, but a VGA to HDMI converter only runs in the $20 USD range.

I'd like to see Jen's build a Lunar mission (to make up for Apollo 13) based on an ARM CPU that emulates the whole thing in a FPGA while proving that the Nobel prize winning Compton Scattering Effect can coexist with the  Bernoulli's principle in micro-gravity, with HDMI output.

Or, we could just get realistic.

Well, you can live in a fantasy world (say hello to the unicorns), or live in the real one.  When you talk with Jens (who live is the real world with red & black ink in his ledgers), he thinks about practical products and then plans them over years before they go into production.  Each of his decisions are calculated and involve the risks of economic success or failure.

Go ahead, he answers his email and posts on EAB.
