Personally, I'd rather see the Amiga as the "primary" machine….. and an
'040 Amiga at that.
Assuming that the "AA" chipset can do 256 color graphics @ 1024×768 Rez
(and if it can't, C= really should re-think things) at least well enough to
emulate a super-vga card, a Zorro III 32-bit 486 bridgecard sould be
possible that will give you a 486-based PC in an Amiga system. If the AA
chipset allows "Super-VGA" emulation through a bridgecard of this type,
well, what else would you need? (If C= wanted to get really crazy, they
could write a Windows display driver that could use the Amiga to do all the
graphics for Windows 3.x/NT — now wouldn't that be a pip!)

NOTE: this is of course a pipe dream….
