I would always be against cloning something that is currently on sale with exception to 1 bit of hardware.
Clone the PPC boards and other old hardware that has not been sold for years YES.
They dont just clone they can add things. So you could clone a PPC board and take away the scsi and add sata or usb. Now theres a thought ;)

UWscsi on the cyberstorm ppc and MKIII rocks at around 35MB/s with real drives, slightly less with ssd/cf etc. adding sata would be a monumental task,since your interfacing with old 68K/ppc

I'll NEVER replace a true 060 accelerator for a Vampire, yep, it's probably faster; but if I want a faster machine I'll go for a different approach, emulation or OS swapping.

Having said that, no new Amiga piece of hardware can be over 150€, maybe 200€.

 I agree with not selling my accelerators, while i do have a vampire and it is fast, i will never sell my bliz 030 or 060,csppc,MKIII. These accelerators may be slower but they run anything and everything amiga.

Vampire still has no mmu/fpu but the fpu is planned.

You are a purist on 060 accelerators but why would u emulate stuff when u can have real hardware for your amiga(vampire), this makes no sense.
