Vampire600 V2 seems like a much better deal to me, feature-wise, and its even a bit cheaper.

But Vampire uses FPGA, and Lotharek board uses a real 68EC020 processor + FPU, so it might have  a higher level of compatibility?

Or maybe some people would rather just have a "real" processor.  ;)

Also - does Vampire do '020+882 instructions?  Isn't it just - basically - a very fast 68000?

On a side-note, I'm a little disappointed that the first we're hearing about this board is through an ebay auction.  I vaguely recognize the guy's name but other than that had no idea he was this close to producing a working, for-sale, accelerator that you can buy today.  Shouldn't something like that be a news item on this site?  :(

As for the FĂșria accelerator, its been discussed on EAB since 2012.

That helps Amiga.org exactly, how?  :p

Might be being a bit of a 'dingle dongle' but where does the hard drive sit. The ribbon just exits the side of the case, or am I missing something.

I think either of these would fit just fine:

Some danged interesting developments for A600's lately.  Almost makes me wish I had one.  Almost.  ;)
