ACube Systems: Sam460LE boards announced / Pre-order campaign Press release: After many months, we are so happy to announce we are very close to a production start for a new batch of Sam460 boards. Well, these will not be Sam460 but Sam460LE, i.e. Limited Edition. Due to the pandemic time and huge delays in delivering hardware components, we had to spend a lot more time than planned to find all components for a production run. Finally, we reached a point where we need your help to start this production. We are now taking pre-orders for these Sam460LE boards. You can find a pre-order product right now in our online shop. All Sam460LE bundles are made of:
We are happy to work with you on this effort to bring more Sam460 boards on the market and we hope you will join us in this project! (dr) [News message: 15. Feb. 2022, 05:43] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] | |||

Commercial RPG: Glamorous Zombie Flakes (OCS/AGA/RTG) The developers of 'Glamorous Zombie Flakes' describe it as an "oldschool, console-style RPG", where the player must guide a group of models to cure zombies of their bizarre affliction and chase UFOs. The title features more than 30 different zombie types, more than 100 items and a turn-based strategy "intervention" system. On AGA or RTG machines, the game supports 256 colors. There's a special build for OCS based Amigas that uses the EHB mode featuring 64 colors. 'Glamorous Zombie Flakes' requires a 68040 CPU, 3.5 MB RAM as well as AHI and can be bought from itch.io for 14 USD (or any higher amount). A few days ago, additional "experimental" Amiga builds that run faster on AGA machines and support CD32 joypads have been released. (cg) [News message: 15.

Video: How Floppy Disk Copy Protection Worked In the first episode of his two-part series on floppy disks, Robert Smith, best known for his DrawBridge project for reading Amiga floppy disks using a standard PC floppy drive, explained how data is stored on a floppy disk, both physically and computer-wise. In the second episode, he goes into some of the physical copy protection methods used to prevent hard disk duplicates from working. (dr) [News message: 14.
