Big difference for me:

Natami: Closed design
Replay: Open source (with 68k AROS)

Personally the Replay is my preference, if it can replace my A1200 and A500 and support RTG/RTA then I'm happy :)

Hang on!!! The YouTube Description says: AGA and an 020 CPU, when did the FPGA 68k core reach 020 compatability? My lust increases :)

Yuummyyy.....my Replay board is payd for and soon in the mail waiting to be tested. Can't wait to get my hands on this board. It's gonna be supercool!!!
It's your board so you can do what you like, but doesnt it feel a bit of a waste to just use the Replay for BBS? :)

Leave the PCs for the boring job of serving up data...

But you dont have to wait for the entire 68k branch of AROS to catch up with X86 version.   Once the replacemnet ROM done thats all that really needed at first

There seems to be some odd ideas as to what an AROS ROM is... All Amigas need Kickstart software to boot, AROS aims to offer a free open source alternative to the copyrighted Kickstart software produced by Commodore and licenced by various companies since.

Apart from the A1000, the Kickstart software for the Amiga was stored on ROM and thus has always been refered to as the "ROM"...

As a classic Amiga user, AROS Kickstart software offers you an updated Kickstart that may include features unavailable (built in RTG for example) in the original software.

Anyone tried AROS 68k on Minimig or FpgaArcade?

Result(s) ?
Current AROS 68k builds require a 68020 minimum at the moment, so the MiniMig v1.x won't run it...

Dunno thought it looked better than forty
Wouldn't you write 4ty then? Anyway, for the purposes of discussion 40 should be sufficient!

Bit banging in a CPU infer the risk of unreliable operation.
That's a massive generalisation! I've never hand any problems, interrupts are your friend ;)

Hahaha! Nice to see I'm not the only who loves AmigaDOS (not WB) around here :D
I always wondered why the Los Gatos team decided to include connectives in commands like "from", "to", etc... it makes AmigaDOS a very fun yet easy DOS to use. My favorite over Linux and Risc OS.
It would have been the MetaComCo guys who included those commands from TripOS, not the Amiga guys :)

Are the other nonAmiga cores compatible with the 060 daughtercard?

Like lets say I want to try out the Atari 2600 core and play some great oldsk00l Activision games (yes Activision used to make awesome games).  Would my "Atari 2600" function correctly with a big bad monster 060 card bolted on top?

Does any Atari 2600 core even exist?

If not then please substitute ColecoVision or C64 in the above paragraph.
Does that even make sense?

What part of a VCS2600 was even remotely 68k based!?
