Greetings,
Andre' LaMothe is at it again with a newly released HYDRA game console
(http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=32360) with similar
capabilities to the Apple //gs or SNES. I know this isn't hardly the forum
for it but think it is interesting nonetheless since we are all into retro
this-or-that, after all, its an Apple group. I like his other XGS game
console kits as well.
In other news, someone is making available a one-chip MSX remake
(http://www.bazix.nl/onechipmsx.html) for approx $400 USD. I never even
heard of MSX until this but it looks like an interest computer, even though
on par with a Colecovision.
How long before someone makes a one-chip Apple // or Apple //gs on FPGA?
Nice try, but HYDRA is still off-topic.
Just because you can make anything out of an FPGA doesn't mean
that anything made from an FPGA is on-topic in any group.
