MiniMig will never be a next generation Amiga but it could be the ultimate classic Amiga. Judging by the demand on e-bay, most Amiga people want accelerators with memory, ethernet, and scan doublers as well as at least ECS compatibility. Minimig could handle this with...
FPGA for ECS compatibility with room inside to upgrade to AGA.
Sofware transparent/selectable promotion from 15 to 31 kHz display.
68040/68060 socket with jumper for 3.3V or 5V and a socket for the oscillator. The used 68060's would get expensive but there are plenty of cheap used 68040's. Support all caching and the fastest possible memory.
Modern memory support like a couple of DIMM or DDR2 slots.
PCI support with at least 7 PCI slots. This would allow for SCSI/IDE, USB, ethernet, graphics cards, etc. Support OpenPCI and many drivers would already be available.
Ability to use the motherboard in a standard "PC" tower with a standard "PC" power supply.
It's possible the PPC could be supported by the Elbox Shark or similar later. It would be nice if the ROM was flashable and at least 1MB also.
I think they would sell like hotcakes if the price could be kept under $500. Even in the $500-$700 price range they would sell ok unless new PPC Amiga hardware came out. I'd buy one or two already assembled motherboards.
