I love my MiSTer. Def. comes with some of its own challenges, but like we
chatted about, I use mine more for computer emulation than gaming. So fun
to just flick a switch and dive into a non-software emulated OS. Was even
thinking about picking up some C64 perifs, maybe disk drive, as you can
hook those right up to the FPGA as well...
