Pre-order starts soon: Amiga inspired case in MiniITX format
Stephen Jones had an A3000-inspired case crowdfunded in 2018, reviving the "Checkmate" brand he used thirty years ago for an A500 desktop case. Announced in late summer, the "Checkmate Mini" variant which is significantly smaller and intended for motherboards in the mini-ITX form factor and can also accommodate the "UnAmiga" and "MIster" FPGA emulators using an adapter kit, was successfully crowdfunded by 303 backers to the tune of around 75,000 euros earlier this year.
As the developer Steve Jones told us on request, the 'Mini' is still available until July only for the backers. The general pre-order page is already up, but the links are still hidden until then. The developer has just received detailed documentation on the case in a test version for review.
Pre-orderable, but currently not in stock, is the 'Plus' variant in black or white for around 210 Euros each. (dr) (Translation: bb)
