I hope the team manages to get it, I realize some people think they are the world champions and will destroy fpga development if not done their way, some have propagate themselves on this forum also

Hi, yes, but before I become professor of geography I have finished some other schools. In my country we like to state what is our job role now and what was the latest degree in our education, not what happened before or in the middle. So to clarify this my other education level is technician of electronics telecommunications with major subjects like PCB design, digital electronics, electronic measuring, PCM... I m doing PCB designs since I was 12. Only important thing here is that I stopped my electronics work for 10 years and dedicated myself to something else, then get back to it with Amiga projects. I hope that this clarify few things :) I m not electronic engineer I m just technician who have limited knowledge in some areas but I m learning fast :)

So... who will develop software for the proprietary Apollo CPU which will only be available to card manufacturers that Gunnar is socially compatible with? I love the concept of the Vampire cards - and now they will apparently have more RAM too, but I am very doubtful about the Apollo core, the big issue I have, is that it very much is a one-man show. I honestly do not grasp Gunnar's business model.
