Let me enjoy the 128 MB first then we can talk about the 4 GB :D:D  You know what that means though? Software in the aminet will have another added additional flavor called FPG Replay heheheh. That means I get the pleasure of download programs in aminet for FPGA Replay try it out on my A1200 and crashes with insufficient memory error hehehe .....Yet will only work in FPGA Replay heheh!! I can hardly wait for the awesome game ports...I am sure NOW...NOW we can have MMORPG games ported into the Amiga system...finally. Also I get to enjoy Quake 2 without removing the eye candy graphics, lighting, shadows and ...AND I get to have multiplayer support into it. I may even install AmiKit for it and looks as pretty as the WinUAE version...Mmmmmmmm...or even AmigaSYS 4 and not AmigaSYS 4 AGA...mmmmmmmmmmmm

This sounds cool :) But a little unclear. Can you please type a bit slower for us slower folks :D and explain a bit more ?
We will be able to connect this SCP to a Replay board, right ? And a PC floppy to it, right ? And read/write real floppies ?


Technically, any device that has a CPU of some kind can control this device.  Yes, you can use any real 5.25" or 3.5" floppy drives with this device to read/write various disk formats.

Thanks Mike!

I'm waiting the core update like crazy. Or an AtariST core. Or something to use the board as a computer at all :D

And I'm also checking amiga.org like 5-6 times a day, waiting for the release to happen.

Haha so there's a few more like me ... :D
So with the current core. It's not useable as an Amiga?

No, it works as an Amiga, but it is a very old core and has bugs in it.

The new core addresses a lot of these bugs and adds new features such as RTG graphics.
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.

That's the problem with jobs, they always get in the way of the important stuff.  :)

I'm home in 4 days and then off for a week (moving house, so not really relaxing).  Any chance of the core update then?

Don't worry, it's not a complaint :)
I spent all day almost gnawing my hands off in frustration that I couldn't get home and hack on one of my "spare time" projects so I understand.
