Pisałem mając w zamyśle właśnie takich ludzi, którzy oczekują, że jakieś urządzenie wpinane w slot obejdzie limity sprzętowe przytaczając przy tym jakieś przykłady typu "tam mówili, że się nie da, a jednak zrobili". Ja wiem, że się da, ale nie w takiej formie, jakiej ludzie oczekują.

Ok pre-orders are closed since today. Production is started few days ago. In 4 weeks we will be able to start sending latest version of the Vampire with latest version of the apollo-core inside. Bug reports are expected from future users. Final, probably higher price of the Vampire 600 V2 card will be determined later and this will not make any kind of influence to the people who participated in pre-orders. This will happen because card will be on sale in verified Amiga shops. I ll try my best to save some videos tomorrow and publish them on my site.

Workbook is AROS 68k minimalistic desktop. Today its usability is quite limited. This bounty aims at extending the available functions to become a replacement of Workbench as found in AmigaOS 3.1
Bounty will be completed when these functionalities are available in Workbook:
Support standard .info files
Manually position & snapshot icons and windows
Drag & drop icons to copy/move
Make new directories
Delete files & directories
Rename files & directories
View/edit file information/tooltypes
Leave out/put away
Make Show All Files/Show Only Icons work as per description
This functionality needs to be available in the ROM version of Workbook, that is
booting a disk only containing LoadWB command will allow usage of Workbook with
these functionalities.
Additionally the following functionalities can be added at the discretion of the developer:
Support for ToolMenu
List-view mode (view + manage files as in icon mode)
These functionalities are not required to mark bounty as completed.
Please support this bounty:
EXTERNAL LINK
it is the chance to get a replacement of 3.1. even for low-spec amigas

Here is a quick update on our Roadmap.
The Vampire is close to start shipping.
Shipping can start in probably 4 weeks.
Apollo Core runs good, stable and fast.
Testing progressed well and so far all looks pretty good.
Testing is not 100% finished yet.
We assume we need about 3 month to 100% complete testing.
Our release plan will be to ship V600-V2 with so called "silver" version of the core.
Silver means with good working core, with speed of 68060 CPU.
Which plays MP3, runs games Workbench etc all well - as you have seen.
But as verification is not 100% completed
So we can not guarantee that nothing is hidden.
In 3 month we plan to release "golden" core update.
Golden Core will fix all issues if found any.
The Bios-update will be able to update from AMIGA CLI.
No extra tools will be needed for this.
At the same time with the "golden" Apollo core.
This means in about 3 month we expect the release the Vampire500.
The V500 will come bundled with golden Apollo.
Shortly after the V500 the V1200 is planned to be released.

Zastanawiałem się jak taki projekt ma się do praw autorskich Freescale 
Czy implementacja procesora Motoroli nie narusza praw intelektualnych właściciela.
Było nie było w końcu mamy efekt uzyskany tylko dzięki "dawcy" rejestrów i logiki.
Chyba że twórca Vampire ma licencję lub prawa do patentu ?

To dobrze Dzięki temu można praktycznie odwzorować np. MC68060@2Ghz 
Widzę że 1,5 Ghz jest w ofercie FPGA 1,5 Ghz
Możnaby w nim świetną Amigę zaimplementować. Chyba spróbuję....

1.5GHz to to pewnie jest w stanie przełączyć flip-flopa a cały procesor by chodził dużo wolniej.
Oczywiście nawet bez użycia tego akurat modelu tylko lepszego od Altery, szczególnie coś z nowszych modeli Strasix można by uzyskać dużo wyższy zegar niż Cyclone III który w sumie jest tanim budżetowym starociem.
