Comment Re:Ask about them... (Score 0) 569

I once interviewed for a job at a smaller company, and at the end of the interview the interviewer leaned forward and asked me with desperation in his voice "why do you want to start here", with the implication "are you mad??" hanging in the air.. Needless to say, I declined the job and that was probably wise.. Moral here is that some things you might not get a perfectly clean answer to, you might need to read between the lines when you visit the company, walk around, shake hands.. Listen to what the interviewers casually talk about during lunch etc..

Submission + - Amiga in an FPGA released under GPL (hetnet.nl) 2

exolon42 writes: This is a mandatory read for every (former or current) Amiga hacker. You have to give it to the Dutch: tulips, cheese, and now a guy named Dennis has recreated the original Amiga chipset in a Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA, and recently released all sources under the GPL to boot! This includes the design of a PCB containing the FPGA, the required MC68000 and normal PC-style hardware connectors so you can build your own. A thought-provoking fact is that the Verilog-sources for the recreated chips (Denise, Paula, Agnus etc.) are only around 500-1000 lines each... chips in the eighties didn't contain 1 billion transistors!
