yep, these are great, but they have some limiting factors,
the main one being C compilers, if you 'roll your own' SoC then you will
more than likely end up with such an 'odd' system that you can't use an off
the shelf C compiler..

That said, its quite funny to watch a 68000 core running at 220Mhz :-)
