    Hi.


    I heard a new buster chip is being developed by Dave Haynie.

    I tried to figure out more about this but I cant find anything.

    How will this be better then the old buster chip?

    Is there an estimate on when it can be released?

    Sorry, no details yet.


    The existing Buster chip has a few bugs, mainly with Busmaster DMA. These are "fewer" with the -11 version than with the -9 version, but they still trigger in the form of complete bus-hangs.


    With Buster-11 being sold out for good, I thought it's a good idea to make a replacement that appeals to the whole Amiga community, and makes fake chips completely unattractive.
