i wonder if there is an easily available 68k board. not a lot out there that i could easily find. the fpga board that MiSTeR seems like a good candidate though

  Before I began the m68k port, I was eyeing the rosco_m68k[1] as an initial m68k port, which would have been easier than going straight for the Powerbook 520. But after a vintage buying spree a few years ago, I told myself that I wouldn't buy hardware anymore (unless it was really really cool or really really needed), so I'm on a strict "make do with what you have on hand" discipline :) But that SBC looks nice. Oh, I see that they don't sell kits anymore, you have to do the sourcing yourself. Maybe it's a bit more complicated. [1]: https://rosco-m68k.com/ https://rosco-m68k.com/

    yeah, unfortunately. i've been on a hunt to design a sort of video terminal system (local machine speaks VT100 or NAPLPS or some other videotext plus a way to run bits of code) and i was looking at the rosco + xosera video card as a way to build it, but discovered it's no longer made. i saw somewhere that people were able to emulate a 68k mac just barely on an esp32 so maybe that's the way to go. it's cheap and sorta connected, at least.
