I noticed that the Graffiti is an non-RTG video card that connects externally.
I have seen those in an Amiga magazine for years.
How does it work internally?

I wish we could make something that is great and not care if it is compatible with anything else.

I do remember a box that connected to the back of an A500 that had a video slot for a Toaster and some 16 bit ISA slots for powering some boards.

I want a new motherboard in an A1200, A600 or A500 chassis.
FPGA would be fine to me.
The A1200 chassis may be the best.

Any reason why the old schematics could not make its way to a board manufacturer?

What do we want our Amiga to be?
1. Hand held
2. Tablet
3. Desktop
4. Server
5. Super Computing Platform
I think a new Amiga would have to be based on a new paradigm.
Was the Amiga based on a new concept or just expanded on an existing one?
Also, what do you think about the video slot in an A2000?
If a new Amiga had one would it be useful?

I would like to design a 68K computer. This would not have to be an Amiga.
Maybe a home grown bit-plane system could be used.
Is it possible to put a bit-plane layer over chunky layer.
edit:
I would like to propose a one and two FPGA chip platform.
If some one wanted to, they could make their own CPU ISA on one chip and a bit-plane system on the other.
Or, they could use a single chip design and reload it as it improves.
I have seen some FPGA design boards that look like a computer main board.
edit:
I believe that their open cpu cores out there.
If an new Amiga 2000 was available and one could buy add-in cards for it, would people flock to it?
Thanks.

It is hard to decide.
What do I like best, A2000, A3000T, A4000T?
