Any estimates on what sort of maximum screen size you expect to get from this?

1280x1024

Oh, and one more thought, can the code for the RTG be applied to unexpanded FPGA Arcade cards or do you need the extender card?

It's expected to run on an unexpanded FPGA Arcade board but right now the TG68K.C soft core isn't compatible enough to run Picasso 96 software.

The idea struck me that this could maybe in the future be ported to a small FPGA dev board like maybe the XULA, and used as a graphics card on actual classic Amiga hardware...

Uhhh, Nice..
And yes, you guys are really being to modest...

I want one.

Will it be possible to add some sort of 3D chip/core later on?

Yeah imagine that, modest; in a world of boasting about putting an ITX Ubuntu computer inside a copy of a C64 shell. These people actually made a new computer! Yet it is unheard of, has received 0 media attention and I will keep it to myself because I'm selfish,  and on the real inside for once!

Same goes for Natami. Hollow vs Real, what are you spending your money on...

Thanks for the info.  I've cross posted this on Amigaworld.net just to spread the word.

@ TheGoose >> I don't know about you, but I wont spend my money on x86 HW with UAE. So you know I would spend my money, if only I had any.

I'm up for one with an 060 when I can get one.

Seems like we spend all our time waiting on the next big thing around here.

We are? I've only been waiting for exactly this for years, ever since Minimig first appeared. I feel pretty good about the idea that I can retire my the old classic systems I have in favour of tinier and more flexible FPGA clones.

Fantastic work. To mirror other peoples sentiments, "I Want One"  :)

For me some sort of p96 hardware/driver makes so much more sense than "super aga". The former having a plethora of available software already that will take advantage of the hardware and established apis, the latter relying on new software be created (by who though?), not to mention work will need to be done in the way of development tools (and docs,examples) to let people even try to offer much advantage of new gfx modes (yes there'll be a small improvement over aga using original ecs/aga modes seeing as a few botlenecks are renoved/reduced, but the same is true of minimig). Maybe (hopefully) there'll be an RTG driver for Natami too one day though.

As for the T68k.c core not being compatible enough, is tht due to lack of an fpu?

Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

For the first time I believe the minimig might offer something that I might just have to have! :)
