I have seen snippets where someone got a Pi essentially emulating a 68k cpu upgrade for an Amiga, and this gave me an idea.
This is way above my head as it's been ages since i've coded anything or messed with PCBs... but maybe getting a Pi on a PDS card to act as an accelerator and hardware decoder for things like video/audio.
Web browsing would be the hardest though as figuring out how to "accelerate" SSL functions and page rendering would likely be the hardest thing to figure out getting any sort of "modern" browsing on it as the Pi would even need to break the pages down into simpler code to fit into the smaller RAM footprint.
I'm of course just shooting off ideas, but in theory this should be possible with the correct firmware loaded to the Pi and some creative MacOS extensions, correct?
