There are great FPGA systems on the market.

SOCKIT for example:

* An FPGA with over 100,000 LE

Such board would give a perfect new AMIGA.

The problem is not the hardware - making boards is cheap nowadays. The problem is the huge amount of work required to target the IP to a specific platform.

FPGAArcade Replay boards have been around for a couple of years now with developers and it's got to a good coherent firmware/library state. Much of the same code is used to power Vic20/C64/Amiga/whatever cores on the same platform.

I designed the board to be good enough, then we have been focusing on the important stuff ever since.

I am convinced

oh, it's much better now

For me at least, it has to be open source. We have about 20 developers working on different platforms, but a common infrastructure to ease programming, fd/hd access etc.

It'll all be pushed to the website shortly, once it is stable enough - and we are nearly there.
I'm selling the hardware, so in that sense it's commercial, but everything else is for fun so to speak.

I developed the hardware platform I wanted to write stuff on
