:-- I have an '030 design accelerator Design for the CD32.  I have not
:built it for a variety of reasons....  It is based on the M1230XA,
:which I also did.... In all praticality... how many people would want
:such a thing?

You have a point, and you'd probably still have a point even if this
machine was still a live issue in the marketplace. Peripherals of any sort
have had little impact on the Amiga game market (apart from hard disks);
the low end drives the market. 

However, if Escom releases an 030-based A1200 with a built-in CD-ROM
drive, as has been reported/speculated, and the game companies respond
(this is the key), I can imagine a 100,000 or so CD32 users who might like
a way to upgrade their machines to the same level. :->
