Calling all Emulators: WinUAE 1.3.3 WIP just released

[Speelgoedmannetje]

Not with UAE. The hw emulation is too tightly integrated to be possible to offload to some PCI card.

And it's quite pointless anyway, any 5 year old PC can emulate the chipset faster than some PCI card...

Why?
One can perfectly make a pci card with it's own chipset/processor, with a pass-through vga adapter with overlay gfx (like old 3dfx cards, or dvd decoder cards), plus a floppy adapter and joyports. The only thing the PCI bus needs to do is controlling the card :-)

Maybe a job for those guys who make the mini amiga? :-)

With todays high frequencies that wouldn't be too easy, and it would also need to support DVI.

High frequencies? :-?
DVI, okay, I understand that that's quite a difficulty. Though I cannot remember any refresh rate/resolution problem using my voodoo2; while using quite high resolutions (wich were not accelerated by the 3dfx) like 1280x1024@75Hz.

But think of it, a 'standalone' amiga with vga/rgb/s-video out, with an A500/a1200 switch, an usb connection (with a pc program like lemonade, and a function to switch adf's with a touch of a button).. How cool would that be?  8-)
