Replay1

At this time, the Replay1 Baseboard is like an Amiga 1200 with an 020 cpu, but the speed is faster than an 030 Amiga.
It does not currently have an implemented FPU or MMU.
It maybe possible to add an FPU implemented in software at a later date.
This would enable software such as 3d modeling and animation which can then make use of the FPU for rendering etc. An FPU will also be useful for Game Demos where fractal and 3D Rendering in real time is required.

Note: If you purchase the Replay1 060 Daughterboard, it has the provision amongst other things, the ability to add a real Motorola MC68060 CPU which depending on the chip you purchase has a real FPU and MMU built in. This will be used instead dependent on what core is installed etc.
And lastly note, You can also install and LC/EC 060 CPU in the Daughterboard and it will also function correctly, as at this time, the Replay does not require either MMU/FPU to be present.

Replay2

(Coming soon)
