Hi walibe,
I don't agree on you talking down AmigaOS 4.0, yes it's true it won't be a lot more functional than a heavily hacked OS3.x, but:
1. PPC all the way
2. Fast 68k emulation
3. A clean code base that not only relies on 3rd party hacks, but should pave the way to a) be more portable to other machines, such as (perhaps) yours and b) new wonderful functionality.
4. Some attempt at standardising/updating the official Amiga APIs
BUT I wanted to again offer my services as an MEE engineering student
(see my email I sent you).
I've done lots of PCB layouts and microcontroller project designs but only two layers and even then only up to 1200 interconnections (all hand routed
I've never bothered with such nicities as high frequency transmission lines (signal length equalisation, noise margins, cross talk) etc. so I'm probably not much use - just a student - but if you need any ideas, some AROS work, let me know
Cheers,
