Wayne, that's an idea that's been niggling at the back of my mind for a
while. As I see it, the hardware part of it shouldn't be too awfully bad, but
the software bits would stump me, at least at this stage in the game. There
are two major considerations. One is that you must write some sort of ROM
that Amiga will recognize on reset, and the other is that you must supply a
driver. Neither of these are intuitively obvious to me, nor do I find the
example skeleton device to be particularly helpful. It IS a heck of an idea
though, as is the logical extension of it, an expansion board that will
accept IBM PC boards.
