Hey, at least it shows there's some demand for it! ;-)

I find it a very interesting project and think it would be very cool if they can deliver. I am a bit sceptical about the the project being real to say the least. To say it another way I haven't put any money aside for this.

There's a big silence from the Natami team now that real prototypes should have arrived. Also a lot of questions about how all the enhancements will be supported in OS3.x are unanswered. I will believe when I see it with my own eyes.

They could "just" add a CGX/P96 and W3D drivers. If the hardware delivers it should be faster while keeping compatability.

Well in theory at least. Let's just wait and see if they ever deliver any hardware.

If the FPGA solution is significantly faster than classic Amigas with Zorro cards then it's good enough, I reckon.
