What I'd like to see is a Phoenix-like board for the A600/A1200 case. AGA chipset, at least an '030 with a bunch of FastRAM and a built-in scandoubler.

AGA implemented on FPGA is science fiction at this point - one is better off with UAE.

Isn't that in essence what the Indivision AGA is? An FPGA Lisa chip? I guess we'd still need a replacement Alice though.

As for the CPU, it doesn't need to be softcore, Freescale still make '040 and '060 CPUs.

Either way, it's still just a pipe dream. :-)
