FPGA Replay Board

[icbrkr]

I put the C-One under my desk and occasionally bring it out when someone posts a 'fix' to a mailing list, or releases a new core. I get excited that it might actually work since I paid... oh what $400 for it and have had it since 2005 ...  but no, it still doesn't do what I want it to do, I get discouraged, and I put it back underneath the desk.

Sounds familiar.  

On the plus side, the C64 and VIC-20 screens look fantastic via the VGA connector.  

Yep

All I ever wanted out of the thing was to:

- Use the IEC port with real drives (fast loaders working properly)
- Use the 3.5" floppy as a 1581
- Use the onboard SID as ... well a SID
- Use the CF card to load D64s
- Use the IDE as... well a hard drive.  CMD maybe?
- Use the extra RAM on there as maybe a 1750

All the 'other stuff' like expanded VIC or whatnot can come later.

In other words, I'd like to use it as my current 128D setup is now.  But what I get is a C64 that loads games with graphical glitches, crashing fast loaders, and unused features.  It's easier/cheaper to use a real C64.
