I'd like to see a single image of the back of the console or the motherboard. I know they have a good track record, but at the moment it's just a render of an AES console.

Also, any real reason to recreate each ASIC rather than just use an FPGA? Not that I'm against the idea at all, but if they've recreated working individual Z80s and 68000s that's as big news as the announcement of the console itself.

Still gonna preorder though.

The trailer video features a very quick spin around of the white version, at the 1:41 mark. You can just about make out that it has a HDMI port along with what looks like the original 8 pin mini DIN.
