AmigaOne X1000: Costs for used CPU about 100% higher than expected
On amigaworld.net users discussed why the AmigaOne X1000 are delivered so slowly. Trevor Dickinson from A-EON also posted a comment: "There were some minor logistical delays from Varisys set against the backdrop of rising PA-SEMI CPU (~100%) prices and other components."

In a interview one and a half year ago Dickinson specified the costs for the PA Semi-CPU in the X1000 with 500. It is not clear if this is the original price or not.

Dickinson said: "We decided to absorb the hardware price rises and not pass them on to consumers." (cg) (Translation: dr)

AROS: 68k-Distribution AROS Vision 1.5.2
Olaf Schönweiß has updated his AROS/68k-distribution. It is a mix of AROS and AmigaOS software (English tutorial). Additional to the AROS-files from 4th August version 1.5.2 includes the following changes:

Updated:
  • Wazp3D
  • Codesets.library
  • Openurl.library
  • MCC Betterstring
  • MCC NList
  • MCC Texteditor
  • MCC TheBar
  • icon.library
  • camd.library
Added:
  • DOpus Magellan (Thank you to Jason for help, GPSoft for permission to include Magellan in it and Jan for permission to use the amikit-version)
  • "Safe" is for virus-protection included in startup
  • MakeCD
  • Additional includes in Amiblitz
  • AmiTwitter

Open-Source-Project Nano VM: Developer für Amiga-port wanted
Stefan Pietzonke wrote: "For my virtual machine Nano I am looking for a developer who will create a build for AmigaOS and AROS.

Currently there are builds for Linux and Windows. Nano-applications can be launched on all supported systems without any changes.

For Nano VM there is an assembler and the N-compiler that I developed. With N it is easy to write programs which can use all features of the VM.

Nano supports multithreading, functions can be started as seperate thread. In the subversion-repository there is simple webserver as an example for multithreading." (snx) (Translation: dr)

Thomas Rapp's Digital Audio Player runs under AmigaOS 3/4 and plays mp3 and AIFF files as well as CDDA data and audio CDs. Because the program uses a buffer, audio CDs should be playable on a Sam460 without getting stuck. (cg) (Translation: dr)
