You're a goddess.  Just yesterday I was thinking that this
would be a really cool project to play with if I had any
spare time.  Now you've saved me the trouble :-)

What I'd really like to see is a 65020.  Maybe you could save
me the trouble of finding the time to build one of them too :-)

As far as peripherals go, all you need is USB.  Then you
simply plug in keyboards, mice, hard drives, ethernet, cameras,
printers...  http://www.beyondlogic.org/usb/usbhard.htm has
pointers to a huge variety of USB-aware chips.  The NatSemi one
seems worth a look.
