or skip the 68k amiga emu/conversion stuff..and run the CF board w/linux  & E-UAE on a A4k.. that would rock.

linux and e-uae? then you might aswell get a pc :/


you're not using your thinking cap.

OS3.x is kinda old and boring.. imagine plugging in a CF card and running a up-to-date os on a A4k or A1200 thats just sitting there doing nothing.  Well worth the money for a board that can do this.

Everyone is waiting on new PPC hardware, a new browser, new features and its just taking quite some time and nobody knows if it will ever happen.  If this board works under Linux you'll have all that you need software wise.. next tough part would be porting a linux distro..

@fx:

let me put it this way.. A ODW Pegasos, while its a awesome machine, is $799.  A A1 if one would want to purchase it probably cost the same or whatever (I dont know).   If this board costs $300 or $400, plugs into your A1200 or A4k, capable of running Linux.. why even switch to a new system?  You could use your existing Amiga, if you want retro games, load up E-UAE.
