Well its official, I am foaming at the mouth with the thought of this.

Its sad for my Amiga's, as the Accounts Manager (Wife) is going to demand some sell off's if I am going to get this.

@Crom00 - I think we'll all be willing to throw hookers at MikeJ and Yaqube once we get this project in our hands...LOL  Am I the only one who caught this reference?

With any luck the factory owner will provide you with flesh and blood Asian Amigas to keep you happy ;)

I think you both need to get to market, if only to see the look on Piru's face.
We'll see what happens...

[edit: thanks kolla]

BTW, do you think it would be possible to emulate the registers of some gfx chip like Virge/Trio64/CirrusGD54xx? If an amiga gfx card was emulated no drivers would be required so we would have P96/CGX support. That would require that 020 emulation was already present.

That shouldn't be too hard, I believe. Those old chipsets are quite well documented, too. The fun part is that (as far as I can tell) it wouldn't require any changes to the HW side of things.

Being able to use existing drivers would be a big plus, indeed.

Don't worry, I step into this trap a lot since the data sheets started talking about "bandwidth per pin"

Cheers

P.S. I was still hoping you would get rid of the atmel controller. It works without nicely on the Altera DE1/DE2 boards, and looks much cleaner ;-)

Speaking of the DE boards, has anyone successfully used the minimig core on the DE2-70? That sure is a heapin' helpin' of LEs, and I foresee a lot more code coming down the pipe.
- Doc

A4000D, A3640 OC-36.3MHz, custom tower, Mediator A4000D. Diamond Banshee 16M, Indivision AGA 4000, GVP HC+8.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

 - Someone please design SOME kind of DIY accelerator for the A4000. :D -

@MikeJ

Its now 16:00(ish) in China... Did the boards make it to manufacture?

Did you make those last 4 connections?

I'm excited.  I can't help it!

Yes, routing is completed.
I have some more work to do to produce the manufacturing data, but they should start tomorrow.

How much boards are produced MikeJ?
Because looks like your replay is rely taking off bigtime now with the AGA core availble now and stuff.
Looks like there is even more populair then say a year ago (looks like it to me)
