Clone-A project would be excellent to fix Amigas with a single faulty chip with a swap.

And Amiga Inc seems dead at this point.. so no more problem from them?


I've often wondered about the claim that Jens couldn't arrange licensing will Bill McEwen. I'm not sure that the hardware patents from the Amiga weren't retained by Gateway in their IP transfer to Bill's company. And they're so old anyway that they may have expired.

Frankly, I don't understand the FPGA Amiga concept anyway. Whether you merely emulated the legacy hasrdware ior attempt to enhance it, nothing you can produce with an FPGA is going to compare to the processing power in an NG system.
Its just a fact, dedicated silicon is much faster than prograsmmable arrays (and always wil be).
