This could be the route to developing and producing "low
cost", 'easy' to build accelerators for the IIgs and IIe.
You can take care of alot of the hardware with the VHDL,
and eliminate the cost of doing so much hardware prototyping.
VHDL, RAM chips for cache, power supply.
This seems like a practical application of the 65XX VHDL. I
don't see why you would want a processor VHDL by itself. Why
not just go buy a 50 cent 6502?

Before you buy.
