I really like the idea of the Q68. Of all these options its the only
one I'd go out and buy. What sort of CPU speed are talking about and
will the FPGA design files be available to modify?
If I find the time to design suitable caches, I expect CPU core speed
between 32 and 40 MHz. At 20 MHz, the Dhrystone benchmark gave something
between SuperGoldCard and Q40.
For the general public, I might hold back some design files until
expenses for manufacturing have been covered. On a personal basis, I can
be asked for more.
I'm also considering to release the board schematics at some point. In
this case, a person with FPGA skills could use the board for general
purposes. For example, I have successfully tried two different RISC CPUs
on the Q68, but I did not design any memory or video controllers for those.
