Is PowerVR chip (used in Dreamcast) a good one?

I don't think the piracy has a strong influence for selling a gameconsole. The PS1 for instance, was already selling very well before cd's could easily being copied.
And copying games for the Amiga was far easier than copying games for the SNES or Megadrive.

And btw. about that gfx thing; didn't Amiga inc. cooperate with Matrox?

Knows anybody actually if there might be a new gfx chipset being developed from the makers of the PowerVR? Would be an interesting one for the A1.
I still think Amiga should develop a nice gameconsole aside the A1. They got the name for it and if it gets a bit publicity, it could sell very well.

And FireWire?

So I assume it's too expensive to use as a standard connector for everything outside the computer. (is it actually fast enough to use with a monitor or so?)

Darn, these screenshots of the Dreamcasts makes me wanting one.

A realistic idea would be to have a Pegasos II mobo and stuff, with 2  USB(2) joysticks, newest PowerVR video card (with drivers), DC emulator (optionally, automatically detects DC gd-roms) automatically booted, DVD-rom drive with GD-rom capability, all this put in a gameconsole case and et voila: you got your gameconsole! Let's say, the DC2 (would Sega be interested in this?)
