The Commodore 64 and Amiga folks are still very active and diehard users.
I wonder if they could be persuaded to build a product line for the GS?
Think about it, there can be a market here.

A 20MHz 65C816 based accelerator for the GS with 16MB of SIMM slots.

A scan doubler card for connection of GS video to SVGA monitors without
Second Sight problems and at lower costs.

An NTSC/RGB/S-video three way converter for the GS.

A source of 20MHz 65C816 chips for current Zip/Transwarp cards.

So, CMD, here we are.  Please build for us!
