Personally, I hope the community's efforts at creating a good FPGA 68K core will progress to an ASIC.
That could run much faster than 133MHZ.
I'll second that understatement!
It would be great for the Classic Amiga community if new 680x0 ASIC's could be funded and produced, which would no doubt lead to new accelerator cards for Commodore Amiga computer models. I'd love to see new replacement motherboards for some of the Commodore Amiga models. Motherboards which also include some newer and faster components, as well as adding a few modern computer technologies.
ASIC makes no sense before there is no fully debugged and working apollo core and added chipset with advanced features. For that FPGA is best solution. When it has advanced someday producing ASIC makes more sense.
