DIY: 2,5-inch IDE-SSD
As reported by hackster.io, Collin "dosdude1" Mistr has released the second in a series of open-source solid-state drive (SSD) upgrades for vintage computer hardware. A 1.8-inch ZIF design is now followed by a 2.5-inch IDE SSD compatible with any device that normally uses a 2.5-inch IDE hard drive or a 3.5-inch IDE hard drive with a simple adapter (YouTube video). So it should also be possible to use it in the Amiga 1200 or Amiga 4000. (dr)

"The Dragnet Case" is a text adventure published by Taskmaster Software, originally written back in the 1980s and now available for various retro systems (C64, Amstrad, Amiga etc.).

You take on the role of Sam Boon, a private detective from L.A. who has had little to do lately and is now suddenly surprised by gunfire. The movement of the character is done by entering the cardinal directions ("GO NORTH", or "NORTH" or just "N" for short) or with "U" (up) or "D" (down). Further instructions are explained in the game description. (dr)
