English Amiga Board - View Single Post - SukkoPera's Open Source Hardware: A500/A600 Chip/Fast RAM Expansions

I am all for an a500 with extras (basic extras). consisting of a 1 x 16Mb chip ram, 8MB Fastmem, RGB2HDMI header, onboard gotek to name a few.

Issues would be availability of an 8375 agnus so allowances would have to be made for an 8372a or equivalent. A wish list would be bootable SD or implement the IDE CPLD on the motherboard. And for the sake of compatibility make these features be capable of toggling on and off.

I don't think this is too much to ask for

. So, next question is a doozie...Will it happen ?
