Another cool thing happening in the Amiga world is PiStorm - a Raspberry Pi based replacement for the CPU. And the resulting speed up in performance and RAM.

if speed is what you want why not just run winuae and emulate at >1000x the speed of 68000? Even pi4 runs winuae at >400mips. You know whats funny? Workbench still stutters while filling drawers one icon at a time.
While fast, PiStorm is still similar to a 030, and not anywhere near fast enough for 060 demoscene.

Workbench is what it is.
