    The Practical Fallback

    FPGA cores on MiSTer and MiST only emulate the native ST Shifter, there's no ET4000 emulation on the horizon given the FPGA resources it would require. The real answer for higher resolutions turned out to be software: Hatari running in VDI mode on a Raspberry Pi 400, which comfortably delivers 1280×768 with far more colors and zero PSU drama.

    How it all connects

    All machines share the same network infrastructure, with FTP access to the NAS for file transfers. Disk images and software archives are stored centrally and served to individual machines as needed. The MiSTer and MiST both use SD cards for storage, while the original hardware uses CompactFlash adapters or SCSI-to-IDE bridges depending on the machine. The Raspberry Pi 400 accesses the same NFS shares as the other Pis in the flat.
