The vampire accelerator is not Amiga.

It's a closed -buggy- FPGA reimplementation of something like 68k (nobody outside them knows exactly what, there are rumors it's based on a ColdFire core that was leaked by mistake) with some custom extensions that are underdocumented and have nothing to do with classic Amiga systems.

The entire platform is meant to lock you into their proprietary FPGA core and is totally counter the spirit of the Amiga which was the ultimate hacker's machine.
