NatAmi 68070 design draft

[Crumb]

Something as complex as a 68k CPU is never going to get even 20Hmz real speed on an FPGA... I'd be surprised if that to be honest...

Tobiflex m68k core is faster than a 20Mhz 68000 with a DE-1 board.

We MUST have the NatAmi60 because:

First; genuine RAM: disk. Then, genuine draggable screens.

Oh, and what of RAD: and it's surviving reboots?

RAD is mostly useless for me. And it's useless for most of people with a stable OS that doesn't reboot each 10 minutes.

And I can't install winXP with SP 2 in the ram disk of WinXP (which doesn't exist) and reboot winXP from ram. So clearly winXP is an INFERIOR OS.

Erm... yeah! sure!

xp doesn't have those, and can't operate with swapspace deactivated,

There's something wrong in your system because I can. Working without swapspace is not a myth, I have done it in the past (it's not a good idea since running out of ram is worst than having some slowdown when paging occurs)

My computer of 2.26 GHz P IV with 1 Gig ram stalls (~3 seconds) when opening a 2 to 4 meg ASCII file!!!!!!!!!

Your computer is badly configured by the user.

AND when I save the smallest trivial web pages with FireFox 2, it take 5 to 10 seconds (not kidding, SECONDS) before I can use FF again.

You have rubbish installed in your system, don't you? Norton antivirus perhaps?

xp is PURE GARBAGE.

Perhaps, but your reasoning for claiming that is totally flawed and insane. And it's pretty clear that you don't know how to use or configure your peecee.

Perhaps you should switch to AROS. No m68k apps but AmigaOS-like OS. Oh! I almost forgot you hate everything that doesn't have a label with "the name" ;-D

Yeah, and really how fast does it actually run?

Using Tobiflex "FAMPIGA" m68k core on a DE-1 board SysInfo reports a 43.10Mhz 68000. Since it's not a JIT, there are no caches involved and the timing should be quite accurate you can be sure it will be always much faster than a standard 68000.

Is there any brave FPGA coder who wants to include 68020 instructions to Tobiflex "FAMPIGA"? :-)

[Crumb]

If it was possible to erase from the "configurable" coldfire the incompatible instructions it would be useful. If that can't be done then custom coldfire will be mostly useless

Do you have graphic card in that PPC 1200? A BlizzardVisionPPC would be perfect for running MorphOS or AmigaOS4
