MorphOS: Updates for twoi Reggae-classes
Grzegorz "Krashan" Kraszewski has published updates for two classes of his multimedia library Reggae:
- audio.output 51.11: An old bug has been fixed, the class crashed when an object could not be created for any reason (usually the cause was exclusive AHI use by some application)
- zxscreen.demuxer 51.3: The class has been extended with support of ZX Interface 1 screen dumps and ZX82 emulator screen dumps.

Individual Computers: New production run of the Competition Pro joystick
Press release In cooperation with Speed-Link we re-launched the only true joystick in september 2006: The Competition PRO for connection to a C64, Atari, Amiga, MSX and Amstrad/Schneider. The project was a huge success, only a few resellers can ship the cult device from the eighties at the moment.
Since an end to the demand is not forseeable, we started a new production run together with Speed-Link. Brand new joysticks for computer-classics of the eighties will be available in july of this year. The technical data in short:
- A true classic, an icon of retro-gaming
- Connects to all retro systems like Amiga, C64, Amstrad/Schneider CPC, Atari, MSX
- Six microswitches, two axles, four fire buttons
- Upper fire buttons can be switched off
- Cable length of 1.80 meters (5.9 ft)
The new production run of the Competition PRO Retro was financially supported by our retail partners. The following resellers will carry the new joysticks exclusively until december 31st, 2009:
Speed-Link will also sell a small quantity of the Competition PRO Retro in their Online-Shop. The new joysticks will be available in july 2009 for a price of 14,99 EUR (RRP incl. German VAT of 19%). Also look for bundle-offers at the reseller of your choice!
Our smaller, but not less important resellers Protovision and Alinea-Computer still have a small quantity of the Competition PRO Retro in stock; if you don't want to wait until july, you can order the ultimate gaming device for your favourite computer without any delays! (snx)

Poseidon USB Bounty: Donation doubling action
Krzysztof "Deadwood" Smiechowicz requested in different English forums for donations for the Poseidon-Bounty. He offers to double all donations which will be paid during the next three weeks to gain the aim of 4000 USD.
Smiechowicz pointed out that the port of Poseidon will not only be useful for AROS but by releasing the sources for all Amiga systems. You can donate at power2people.org.
So far Smiechowicz was known as developer, e.g. he made the AROS-ports of MPlayer and Eternal Lands.
