Thanks! That's just my intent with the videos: to show the UNIX workstation or even server capabilities that NetBSD brings to the Amiga. With increasing re-interest during last years on Amiga m68k and the new TerribleFire, Warp, BFG, A3640/A3660, A630 accelerators... it should be fairly easy and relatively affordable for Amiga users to get at least a full 68030 CPU in their hands, and with that the possibility to run NetBSD.

I still think the most serious technical issue that would prevent adoption is the CF card incompatibility.
