"What do I care Ive finaly got a expansion card of Ebay"

Cool, What?

"I like you web page CDTV do you Know Where I can finD Shelock holmes-Consulting Detective for the CDTV (iso) "
Sorry but nope, I dont know any CDTV ISO Archive sites.

"Also do you think you could fit A1200 board in a CDTV and what if so what interface is the cd-Driveor any other iso cdtv for that matter"
The CD-Rom drive is a MKE/Philips interface so you would need a suitable PCMCIA card for that. (I think there was only one made, something like the CD1200... not the CD1200 made by Commodore though)
The A1200 is to wide I would say to fit in the CDTV's Case, although only by a little bit, if you removed the second joystick port you could probably fit it in after removing the PSU from the CDTV's case.
It would be tight though

There are 486 hardware CPU cards but nothing faster that I know about. (The Emplant could have a 586 module attached but it was just to aid fast software emulation)
Oh and a 150Mhz 040 is probably only equal to a 50Mhz 060 anyway. :)
OS4 has a PPC 68K emulator (pertuna or something like that) that is ment to give very good speeds although on a Cyberstorm and Blizzard it seems you only get 060 speed again. :-/

Best thing is to buy a PPC card and run those nice new PPC programs, you know you want to. (PS: UAE Cant emulate a PPC CPU, although there are x86 PPC Emulators around)

Im talking about x86 emulating Amiga 68000+ not the other way round:)

Well, someone managed to get a 20Mhz Commodore 64 to emulate a primitive 8086 to run an early version of DOS or CP/M if I remember correctly, so it's probably possible. But other than proving it can be done, I really couldn't see a point in doing it. But then I'd think the same about reaching the top of Everest too.

Shaun.

Would it be possible hypotheticly to have a expansion card or Amiga(MiniMiG) with (hardware) emulation bassed on a x86 chip (a cheap pIII maybe) giving you a hypotheticle emulated e.g 040 150mhz
