Sure. $300 seems like a good upper bound on the price. But for that
price it should be able to run a variety of apps (Lemmings and DPIV would
top my list) and emulate most of Amiga's hardware (sprites, multiple screens,
HAM, four channel sound, ...). I don't care about true floppy disk emulation 
but it would be a plus to be able to use copy protected floppies. It would be 
great for the emulated Amiga to see the NeXT's file system as well.

Seems pretty difficult to me.
