Jim,
In an interview not to long ago with Dave haynie, he stated that he had
started to develop his own Zorro IV bus until he got a good look at PCI,
he said after examining it his new design would only be marginally better,
so he scraped it and planned to use PCI in the 5000. If NTSC video is
your need I feel sure any new Amigas would still have it's native graphic
hardware (possibly in a new form) that you could use, but for general
computing use compatiblity with industry standards is a BIG deal.
