- 04/10/2024 12:15 AM: -- The Matchbox CoCo as designed by Roger Taylor is an amazing little piece of hardware. It is based off the DE0-Nano FPGA development board from Terasic and two custom boards: NanoMate (OSHPark) and Nanolog (OSHPark). You can download the FPGA core from Roger’s Patreon for $5 which is very reasonable + continue to support him if you wish. I’ve dusted mine off and am playing around w/ FPGA programming on it (amongst my many other FPGA dev boards!) and I hope on writing some blogs on my experiments w/ it.
