Wait, Amiga on a PI?

[Heera]

I’m sure this is old hat to a lot of you, but I only just discovered that you can build a really good Amiga on a Raspberry PI. Yeah I know that Amiga emulators have been around forever but right now I’m in that “happily intense” phase of messing around with the PI so the thought of combining that with the beloved Amiga environment has me more juiced up than anything else has in a while!

Somewhere I think I even have an Amiga 500 shell I could stick the PI into if I felt like it (LOL).

Excitement of learning new stuff+nostolga+it’s not Microsoft=HAPPY CAMPER!

My experience has been that software emulation of old hardware can be so realistic that it becomes possible to suspend reality and imagine one is using the original machine. On the other hand, the lumps of plastic made by three dimensional printers are so unlike the original hardware, that for me personally, looking at an old photograph is more satisfying.
