The one consistent claim you keep hearing repeated is what this will do "soon".

But they have implemented new instructions that almost nothing supports!

Hey, the excuses about not promising a compatible MMU (which an '040 or above cpu should have) don't make up for the lack of a floating point unit.

So cut the BS. This crap IS Natami style cultish at times.


Well, the main dev for the core is the Natami dev so that makes sense.

No intent to flame anyone, I'd like to buy one, when it has the compatibility needed to make useful, which INCLUDES the fpu.

HDMI sound out, new multi-media instructions, for that matter video in general if it isn't fully AGA compliant, I DON'T care.
I'd just like a cpu that gives me what I can get with an '020, '030, '040, or '060 card.
At least the option of an fpu (if not one built in).

Again, this IS supposed to be the "'080", right? :angry:


I would still say its worth getting one now even with the compatibility issues. For the most part if you just get apps that are for the stock machines they seem to work. If you run something thats 030+ it will expect an FPU and fail. I just try and remember that and have had some good luck with it. Its the auto detect stuff thats been a pain in the ass for me.
