New Amiga 1200 cases available / Goal for Amiga 500 mouse reached (Update)
Initiated one a half year ago by Philippe Lang, the replacement cases for the Amiga 1200 are now available in online shops for the first time. They can be ordered from Amigastore.eu (Spain), Amedia Computer (France), AmigaKit (Great Britain) and AmigaOnTheLake (USA).

As a result of financing the A500 cases (amiga-news.de reported), now the Amiga mouse can be produced because currently 191539 US-Dollar have been donated.

Update: (14.07.18, 20:09, snx)
According to Philippe Lang, by Alinea Computer there is also a german dealer offering the cases now. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Hollywood plugin: Polybios 1.0a
Press release: Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are back on your screen with Polybios 1.0a - the ultimate PDF tool for Hollywood. Thanks to the efforts of Stefan "Bebbo" Franke, who ported gcc 6.4 for the m68k platform, Polybios' PDF renderer is now also available for the m68k and m68k/m881 platforms. This finally provides OS3 users with a state-of-the-art PDF renderer as well! For optimal speed it is recommended to use the FPU version because Polybios' PDF renderer is quite heavy on floating point arithmetics.

Additionally, version 1.0a contains a bug fix in the AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS versions of Polybios. No changes were made to the builds for all the other platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS, Android) which is why the version number wasn't bumped to 1.1 but just uses 1.0a for the moment. Polybios is available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. (cg) (Translation: dr)
