Heh..... if I had the skills to do a Hobby Amiga ....
I would take an A1000 motherboard, measure it, and re-design an AGA (or even a simple ECS version) and try and somehow dual processor a pair of 060's right on the motherboard. (I mean actually create a brand new mobo replacement that fits exactly in the A1000)
Maybe even add PPC somehow. This coldfire CPU is also interesting. If you really want to do a hobby puter. Add a 3rd different type of CPU to the mix like that and come up with some new "tWisTeD AmIGA" in a 1000.
Why a 1000 case? Gotta have a keyboard garage babY!
I'd redo the power supply, making it half the size, so I can install some sort of new harddrive tray on the left side to hold a 3.5 HD. Intergrate a scan doubler, add some DIMM sockets, hell maybe even figure out a way to put a video card right there on the motherboard which the AGA (or ECS) can pass thru on it's way to the scan doubler.
Cut a hole in the plastic front panel big enough for one of those laptop CD drives.... plop down 2mb of chip ram mobo mem, 2 meg or so of video ram for whatever type of RTG system u add. And Poof!
A twisted fantasy Amiga!
Heh
Of course it sounds easy dreaming about it
