Amiga Forever 4.0
Amiga Forever is the all-in-one Amiga emulation and connectivity environment for PCs,
officially licensed by Amiga International. We are pleased to announce the
release of Amiga Forever 4.0. This new version includes version 3.1 of the
Amiga ROM and OS files and AGA support under WinUAE. Additional pre-installed
programs and features, like for example Personal Paint, DirectoryOpus 5.5,
TurboText, drag-and-drop LhA de-archiving, and the ToolManager dock have been
updated.
This version additionally includes an archive with a new,
ready-to-run PowerMac version. This emulation is currently the only way of
having an Amiga laptop (if we assume that you install it on a PC laptop or on
a Mac Powerbook/iBook)
New features of Amiga Forever 4.0:
- GlowIcon look (as used in Amiga OS 3.5, but also compatible with NewIcons
and MagicWB)
- Option to switch entire environment from "new look" (GlowIcons) to
"old look" (Classic) and vice versa
- Amiga Explorer 4.0 (includes revolutionary self-install over serial
cable, plus new Cut, Copy, Paste functions)
- Directory Opus 5.5 (courtesy of GPSoftware)
- Personal Paint 7.1b
- Built-in support for ADZ and DMS disk image files
- Print spooler (easily print all Amiga documents under Windows, bypassing
parallel port emulation)
- New emulation and Workbench configuration results in faster emulation of
the Amiga CPU
- New MenuBox launcher (easier to use)
- Dozends of other enhancements and new add-ons
- MPEG-1 videos (CD-ROM version): The Deathbed Vigil (one hour and 58
minutes) and Jay Miner Speech (49 minutes)
Amiga Forever 4.0 - Overview
Amiga Forever contains state of the art software to satisfy two major needs
of many Amiga users: to share data between Amiga and other systems, and to use
their existing Amiga software and data on non-Amiga hardware.
Additionally, software, tutorial and reference files which are likely to be of
interest to any Amiga enthusiast are included with the CD-ROM. More details.
