Something has always bugged me about creating a new computer architecture, then attaching it to old hardware.

It sounds a bit like to 32X add-on for the old sega Genesis/megadrive.

Kinda good as a concept, but the reality is you end up with a not-quite-new machine that cant-quite-do modern computing tasks and is held back by all the legacy dependencies.

And how many A4000's are out there anyway?

I have to admit, everytime I see an old junked 030, 040 or PPC based Apple at my local computer salvage shop I still think, "Damn, If only I could rip the guts out of that and put it in an Amiga."

I think I may be long past buying anything new when it comes to Amiga.
