I understand this can load/read a FAT32 flashcard.  Have you tried this?  Is there floppy image emulation?  I'd like to get rid of the C64C and floppies if I could.  I figure my entire collection would fit on a 128M CFC.

Edit:  Re-C64 core.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Have you seen the specs of the C-One?  It's not just a C64 clone.  It has plenty of new features (DMA, more color modes, etc.) to make C64 programmers happy.  Plus, it can be configured for other cores just by adding a CPU card, and loading the emulation core.

As for why do it in hardware versus just runing an emulator on a PC.  NOTHING BEATS THE REAL THING. You might be able to play your Megadrive games at ~98% accuracy and have features like save states and pause but then again you've been able to do that in hardware since 93 and with 100% accuracy.  (Not to mention the entry price of a suitable computer which is more than the original price of the system and games as is...)
