If you are going FPGA which is better at parallel processing instead of raw MHz just keep going with it. It will probably end up better or faster than a Coldfire system.

What can be done on the software side to fix this? Could you add libraries that make it Coldfire compatible?

@Matt Hey and Gunnar. Can you make the Coldfire compatible via a software library?

@above
There isn't really an Amiga market. There would be about three programs that you might actually purchase. The rest would be free utilities.

I would like to have an 060 speed expansion this year. In another year or two the 300mhz 060 speed expansion.
There should be a compatible version and also a fast version. Because even a small group of people are going to have disagreements.

Could we stop going down the track of promising a 68k that will use modern software? It is distracting from current software releases.
  No one should develop software that will only run on a faster than 060 processor. A few games might be the exception.
  It is no longer fun when I am worrying about expansions and upgrades.
