Potentially it will. You will probably be the first one to test. It will only work in Zorro II mode.

I’m thinking of ordering one of these beauty’s and dusting off my Amiga 3000 to put it in.

Yep, would be nice. This would probably require a separate firmware branch. It's open source though, logic gurus with an elbox busboard feel free to help. :-)

I should be getting my ZZ9000 I ordered in September for my A3000 this month when batch 6 will finally be shipped. I'm really pumped to finally get the Amiga running with normal monitors and TVs.

That’s IMHO the best feature of the board. No hassle, no double cables, great digital output. Biggest issue is that the switch doesn’t always happen automatically (some non-os friendly games fail, but games starting from WHDLoad always work). Then it doesn’t support SuperHighres (not a big loss, but VirtualKarting exploits it ahah) and it would be great - imho - if it had a switch for scanlines. That could be done by someone who knows how to change the firmware. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

So it does NOT show scanlines by default, right? I really, really, REALLY *hate* fake scanlines on retro hardware and software. Brrrr.

Gfx artists knew that and exploited it in many games. And they still help on a higher dot-pitch monitor as the M1438 that I used to have All IMVHO The Pi-HDMI seems to support them, but I couldn't find anyone showing them on YouTube, just to assess how good/bad they are. |

Is there a list of ARM-programs for the ZZ9000 somewhere? I can't find anything but Lukas Hartmanns Twitter regularly teases cool stuff running on the ARM.

It's slow going on the development side of things with the ZZ9000; Lukas has a lot on his plate with the open source laptop, and to my knowledge all other ZZ9000 development is strictly volunteer based. Your best bet for info is the ZZ9000 IRC channel (below); I haven't been able to get mIRC on my PC to connect, so I've been out of the loop for quite some time now. #mnt-amiga on irc.freenode.net |

The channel is on the https://libera.chat/ network after what happened to freenode.

Just saw this on Twitter... ZZ9000 Price increase and probable delay.
Due to the global semiconductor shortage, I have increased the price of ZZ9000 to 389 EUR (399 EUR for the Amiga 500 version), and out of abundance of caution moved the delivery target of batch 8 to May 2022. I'm very sorry for this. 1/2 We are counting how many of the current orders we can fulfill, evaluate further options and will update you again tomorrow. 2/2 [Source] |

News again from Lukas on Twitter: "We found a supply for key parts and have adjusted our shipping target for MNT ZZ9000 back to the end of this year. To make this work, we have to pay a significantly higher price for parts, so we raised the price of the product by 40 EUR (to 389 EUR)."
Shop page says: "If you pre-order today, you will be in Batch 8, which is planned to ship Nov/Dec 2021." |
