ziplock

In a Propeller single board computer, would features would you want? SD/MMC? ADC/DAC? Shift Register? SRAM?
Just curious.

But YOU can call me ziplock.

What I would like to build is:

I think an open architecture and documented computer would be something I'm interested in because that would be a hobbist's computer.

I think a self contained unit without the need to plug into another computer would be ideal.

I think that if it is going to use SD cards, files and system ROM shouldn't share the same SD card.· It should probably have two external·ports for SD cards.

I think it should have Basic with a math package and a built in machine language monitor.

I wouldn't mind if it was portable and could work with LCD as well as the television.

It should probably have a port for a mini hard drive or hard drives.

I would aim at a computer slightly more advanced than a Commodore 64. I think the C-128 should have had sprites but they existed only in C-64 mode: Color Graphics or Tile Graphics, two or more voices on a chip, probably 16 or more sprites, a low and high resolution screen.

I want something with memory.

It has to do word processing in at least 80 columns.

Something else but I don't know yet. If I aim high, I might just get it.
