- IMHO it would be quite easy for a new A1200 board to give lot more
- performance with unchanged AGA chipset. Burning new chipsets seems to
- be a expensive thing. My point is not that I don't like to see AGA+
- but I like to see a updated A1200 board NOW.
-
- features:
-
- faster chipmemacess. should be no real problem to implement.
-
- chipwrite buffer like on A3000. speeds up many loops a lot
- (free cycles even when doing fastmem acess!)
-
- and finaly, if a single person can make a donlge that makes
- AGA go scrambled chunky (grafitti), maybe a computer company
- can throw together some TTLs to get linear chunky up to SHRES ?
- Maybe copper would have to cause a cpu interrupt to switch
- dongle for vports.
-
- faster cpu as well, would it be difficult to offer multiple
- models from EC030-25 up to MMU030-50 with same board ?
