The tweets hails to A600 owners.

If I recall correctly, the TF series is explicitely not designed for the A600, leaving an opening for those that want to work on that.

Surely on the A600 they'd either go for a Vampire or PiStorm and be done with it? Cheaper and faster (at least the PiStorm would be) and less hassle getting a non-remarked chip.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

To each its own. I personally am not interested in either of those two and would love a real 68030 accelerator for the A600.

Real 68030/68040/68060 has a working 68K MMU.
