I hope I am still on the list.
This board is going to be great.
I might even sell my classic amigas.

Well, Mike finally came through for me and sent me a board.  I have been on his list since March 2011, and had been offered a board then but wanted to wait for the final board.  Man, like I told Mike, if I had known how long it would be I would have jumped on that earlier offer.  Mike assured me most of the time since then has been spent on software and that the hardware has been solid.  Any how, I just moved a few months ago and my new(old) house which is a downsized from a 4000sqft to a 1938sqft home, and the room that has my electronic equipment is a mess with boxes all over the place. But, I hope to have it setup here shortly so I can play with this board.  My discussions with Mike makes me feel that he is on the verge of getting these boards out to everyone very soon, so do not give up hope as this board is very real and I will supply some pics of my setup soon.  Keep the faith.  

Mike

Glad you got one.  There is a lot of work going on, not just on the Amiga core.  I know this wait for the update seems like an eternity, but that's just because Mike isn't going to release the core until he's completely satisfied with it.  2 more weeks?  ;)

So how does it work, are there three FPGAs or are all the custom chips emulated on one FPGA?

Thanks.  Mike mentioned the continued work on the Amiga core, and promised no badgering once I got my board, so I had to swear to be patient while that work was getting done.  Two weeks sounds great!

One FPGA. Kind of appropriate, since back in the day, the three custom chips were supposed to be one chip, but the tech of the day didn't go that far.

I have been waiting since 2011 but rather wait for fully working amiga core than a buggy one. Before getting my fpga arcade board.

Mike seems to be giving boards to developers, so there are plenty of new cores in various states of awesomeness. Amiga core is still missing some key ingredients before the next batch of hardware will be rolling off the presses. Just another 2 weeks... (in the amiga sense)

I've been sent new firmware to run the latest core (and which should allow me to load some additional cores).  Unfortunately I've been busy with some other stuff so I wasn't going to reflash until the weekend (hopefully tomorrow).

Only if you are able to assist with the development it seems. We appear to be very close, but Mike wont release to the masses until the common framework is stable and the AGA core works adequately. With the Atari (400/800), VIC20 and C64 cores being developed by various people there is extra work required on the common framework. There is steady, and visible progress so it will be with us before all our amigas are retired to the digital graveyard.

I think Mike is currently having fun dismantling C64 SIDs and that can only be a good thing.

It would be neat to see comparisons between Replay, UAE and a non-virtual Amiga on speed, quality, etc.
