C128 in an FPGA?

Wow, what qualifies you to speak for Jerry and her time?  I would presume that she has bills to pay and likes to eat, just as we all do.  She's more than likely out looking for another job to pay her bills and buy food rather than spending it on FPGA projects that DON'T bring ANY income to her.

I'm with you 100%.  It's so rare that anyone recreates our old 8-bit loves that it's hard not to get pushy or impatient about it......sorry if I sounded harsh.

Amiga.org is such a lively and colorful place!  There's more drama here than on a b-grade soap opera!  I hate to admit it, but sometimes I surf this board just for the drama.  Thanks for keeping it interesting!

Thay may be true for an unreleased core, but the core running in your commercial product HAS BEEN a primitive Minimig for almost two years.
You have been selling a product with GPL code closed and expanded without opening back the sources.
And the fact that this product is badly built is just and additional problem.

And your problem with this is?  People create and sell poorly designed products all the time and people will still buy them....but as for Frederic's product being poorly designed, I don't think most of us on this board have the qualifications to make that kind of statement, yourself included.

And your accusations about GPL violations are off-base as well.  People write closed-source applications and modules all the time that interface with open sourced and GPL code.  This same issue is being addressed with Nvidia Optimus technology on Linux platforms, so I don't see why you're trying to make this an issue except that you have some sort of immature personal grudge match that you've declared.

I really don't care what some people "consider" a violation.  I only care about the facts. And all I've seen here is gaula92 using this thread as a personal attack directed at Frederic. Until someone cares enough to PROVE with facts that Frederic is violating the GPL, then they need to shut up and stop attacking his credibility while hiding behind an online forum.  If gaula92 is so convinced that Frederic has violated the GPL,  and he has proof of it, then he should file a law suit instead of turning this thread into a weapon for personal attacks.  Where I come from, that's called "Put up, or shut up!"  Right now I'd like a lot of "Shut Up" as far as this matter and GPL violations are concerned.
