Depending on the degree of compatibility with the original platform I would be VERY interested in one, and maybe some Amiga stores would be too.
Here in Amsterdam I met a few people that just recently bought a brand new A1200, which should say somthing about the demand at the moment...

My goal is for most software that would run on an 040 A4000 would run on this machine.  There will be some code that will break on the ColdFire because not everything can be emulated via trapping unimplemented instructions,(flags not being set on certain multiply instructions for instance) but it doesn't look like that should kill a huge number of applications.  I hope to increase compatability with either (or maybe both) a softcore 68K in the FPGA or a modified version of UAE which can pass hardware access to the chipset in the machine and thunk OS calls to the OS running outside the emulation environment.


Keep us updated, sounds really cool!
