Under the link, pictures of and comments about the "Rejuvenator board" are found, a relatively rare hardware expansion for the Amiga 1000 that allows the use of a 8372B-BigAgnus with up to 2 MB of ChipMem. Additionally, the board possesses a battery backed-up clock, 256/512 KB ROM socket and an A2000 video slot. The 512 KB on the mainboard are bound as FastMem or used as ROM. The use of Kickstart disks is still possible. (cg) (Translation: cad)

Press release: Cloanto Releases Amiga Forever 2005
Cloanto's official press release about the shipping of Amiga Forever 2005 (amiga-news.de reported):

Cloanto Releases Amiga Forever 2005

October 7, 2005 - Cloanto released today Amiga Forever 2005, the official Amiga emulation, OS, connectivity, history and support suite, now featuring 20 GB of software, data and videos to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Amiga computer.

Amiga Forever 2005 is available in three editions:
  • Online Edition (downloadable installer for Windows systems, $29.95)
  • Plus Edition (downloadable CD ISO image with Windows and platform-neutral additional content, $39.95)
  • Premium Edition (a physical package containing the Plus Edition CD, two DVDs and an Amiga "Boing" epoxy dome decal, combined with an instant download of the installer for Windows, $59.95)
Previous versions of Amiga Forever included more limited multimedia content on a single CD. After almost two years of work, the new Premium Edition version features more than five hours of "must-see" videos on two professionally-authored dual-layer DVDs.

All versions of Amiga Forever include Amiga OS 1.3 and 3.X files that make it possible to run "Classic" Amiga software (including thousands of legally-downloadable games, demos and other Amiga applications) on any PC, with special support for the Windows platform, but also compatible with Mac OS X and GNU/Linux systems.

On the software side, the new version makes use of XML-based technology to more easily download, install and run Amiga games and demos, more of which are now also included in the package itself. Amiga Forever 2005 introduces several changes that will make the transition to Windows Vista as smooth as possible (and it already runs fine on the latest beta, too), especially if the Amiga emulation and OS are hosted in an environment that does not have administrator privileges. But Amiga Forever is not just about games and videos: professional users will for example appreciate the improved SCSI-passthrough functionality and drivers, a feature that is missing even in high-end "virtual systems", and that aims to assist in the recovery of old data that may otherwise have been considered lost.

Last but not least, the Premium Edition features the new "Boing" decals, which Cloanto originally introduced with the launch of Amiga Forever 1.0 in 1997. The new epoxy dome decals are printed in three colors on brushed metal, and, by popular demand, will from now on be included in every package.

At the same time, the Amiga Forever web site at www.amigaforever.com just went live with over 200 new or updated pages. The site includes additional information about the different versions, including screenshots, technology tutorials, links to game and demo download sites, and much more.

As always, the Amiga Forever Team at Cloanto would like to thank the Amiga Community for its support over the past 20 years, which made everything possible, from the first steps developing software for the Amiga, to this new version of Amiga Forever.

Under the title link Steffen Nitz has published an update of his SN-EuroArchiv to version 2.05 and two new programs: the memory game SN-Memory and the management software for investment metals SN-AnlagenArchiv II.

SN-Memory 0.75

A new memory game with four card sets with the well known game rules. You can create own card sets in a very simple way. All graphics are supported which can be loaded with the datatype system as well as screens with up to 32 Bit. AHI controls the sound output.

SN-AnlagenArchiv II 0.51

This is a management software for coins and bullions which are available over bank but also over eBay and other suppliers. The program works with gold, silver, platinum and paladium.

All daily rates of the four metals are managed in US-Dollar and Euro since 1978. The SN-AnlagenArchiv II is completely compatible to SN-AnlagenArchiv I.

Additionally the new website http://gold.sn-archiv.de introduces the current gold charts as well as some of the usual gold coins.

Windows development suite with Amiga/68k crosscompiler
AmiDevCpp is based on the free development suite Dev-C++, but the generic compiler has been replaced with an AmigaOS crosscompiler. Thus, it becomes possible to develop and compile programs for the Amiga (m68k) while using the Windows environemt.

The integrated development suite offers a decent and mighty work tool (screen shot). With the packet system even beginners are able to install new includes and libraries.

Most packets also include examples which work instantly, even programmer newbies can make their first Amiga program without typing a single line of source code.

The development suite comes with a windows typical installer,which is multi lingual and includes a deinstaller, too.

Bug reports, critics and suggesions are most welcome if placed at the programmer board by amiga-news.de. (snx) (Translation: ub)

MorphOS: Software news up to 02.10.2005

DiskSpeed 4.9

DiskSpeed, the program for determining harddisk access speed, was ported from AROS to MorphOS by Ilkka Lehtoranta.

Download: DiskSpeedPPC.lha (82 KB)

ezTCP 0.6

In the meantime, the PPC-native TCP/IP stack ezTCP by Pavel 'Sonic' Fedin is available in alpha version 0.6. The problem with domain names starting with a number was solved. Additionally, together with the separate usergroup.library, which is now ported as well, the use of programs based on the ixemul.library is also possible.

Download

usergroup.library 4.1

The usergroup.library was separated by Pavel 'Sonic' Fedin from his TCP/IP stack project and serves solely compatibility purposes. It is merely required by programs based on the ixemul.library in interaction with the TCP/IP stack, even though Amiga operating systems represent only single user systems anyway.

Download

XDME 1.84

XDME concerns a texteditor that was ported to MorphOS by Ilkka Lehtoranta.

Download: XDME-PPC.lha (1,4 MP)

XInvaders3D 1.3.6

XInvaders3D is a clone of the game Space Invaders (Screenshot) based on vector graphics, which was, likewise, ported to MorphOS by Ilkka Lehtoranta.

Download: XInvaders3D.lha (94 KB) (snx) (Translation: cad)
