At the July 18-19 Commodore Vegas Expo v11 2015, the MCC-216 returns, this time with the latest goodies and cores - Commodore 64, Amiga 500, Apple II, ZX Spectrum, and Atari 800XL.  SCCAN member Matt will be at the show to demonstrate how to install OS 3.1 into the MCC instead of OS 1.3 and how to use his beta installer in order to add cores and games easily into the MCC's directory structure.

If you can't attend CommVEx, Matt has posted his video of installing OS 3.1 into the MCC at

Well, that is encouraging, doesn't look as good as my A2000, but then its not run any of the additional graphic modes I can run.
And the benchmark make my humble 14 MHz '20 look good.

Can anyone explain to me why the stock 68K is targeted when the '020-'030 provides a major jump (at comparable speeds) and the leap to '040-'060 performance can be downright amazing?

The FPGA is a small one. I found the info on EAB.

Thanks. That makes sense.
Smaller FPGA, lower price, but with limits on what you can jam onto it.
