Is it just me or shouldn't this become a more serious product?  If its so easy (Not to diminish the efforts made.) To do an FPGA of the old chip sets why not do an AGA chipset with a 68060 core cpu and ppc 603e built in?  Then presto you have a base system that should be a couple hundred bucks and could in theory run OS4 have various cardslot types etc..

Personally I know, all amiga / hyperion wants is royalties.. So if you build it, sell it, pay them your good to go..

Am I wrong guys?  
If a motherboard like what I described was available and worked for say 250 per bare board. Plus lets be sick and say 200 in royalties..
Plus 40% Margin.

So 650 ish for a mother board with basic cpu & os seat..

Would we buy it?

Personally next time I feel I have a few bucks to really spare I think Ill get a refurb a1200 and minimig from amigakit.. Just so I have one before its all really gone..
