So you guys are saying that we could create a new Apple II accelerator
card using ARM processors. Cool.
With the StrongARM being 32 bit, we could also design a new IIgs
accelerator as well. I really need to look at these chips in more
depth.
Do either of you happen to know the price for single quantities (or
less than 10 anyways) for any of the ARM/StrongARM processors. That
would be the deciding factor as to whether I could even attempt any
projects with them.
