MorphOS: Origin Web Browser 1.8
Fabien "Fab" Coeurjoly has published an update of the Origyn Web Browser for MorphOS. As usual there are two different versions of the Browsers: OWB-lite, which is also part of the MorphOS 2.5, does not have any support for the SVG-format. Thus it uses less memory.
Version 1.8 can now play videos with Overlay in full screen mode. This causes less cpu-usage of the processor. Additionally the user can execute own JavaScript files in the browser similar to the Firefox-extension Greasemonkey.

AmigaOne X1000: Beta test program
Press release: You may have read in various interviews that AmigaOS 4.1 has been booting to Workbench on the AmigaOne X1000 hardware for quite some time. We can also confirm that additional Nemo prototypes have been supplied to several OS4 developers to allow them to complete the necessary onboard hardware drivers (SATA, Ethernet and HD sound, USB is already mostly working). Meanwhile a revision 2 version of the Nemo motherboard is being finalised and to ensure we have the widest possible testing we are making 100 Rev 2 motherboards available to Beta testers under a special discount program..
We have received many request from Amigans who wish to join the Beta Test team and these will be processed by Hyperion-Entertainment who are coordinating the Beta Test program in conjunction with A-EON Technology.

A-EON Technology CVBA
