A1200: Triple LED Adapter on Amigakit
On Amigakit a A1200 Triple LED adapter is available which can be used as replacement for the original component in the Amiga 1200. While purchasing it you can choose a colour for each of the three LEDs as well as for the replacement LED (red, green, yellow). According to AmigaKit "the three LED units are easily removable/interchangable without any soldering". (cg) (Translation: dr)

Web browser: Netsurf 3.8 (Reaction)
The web browser Netsurf - and also Chris Young's Reaction-based Amiga port - is available in version 3.8. The (cross-platform) changes "feature some page layout improvements, stability and security improvements, and some minor additional features". The port for AmigaOS 4 is available on the official download site. Test builds for AmigaOS 3 are offered separately - but here the support for SSL/TLS is broken. Young asks for your help to fix it.

On request of amiga-news.de Artur Jarosik, who is developing the SDL version for AmigaOS3 (amiga-news.de reported), said that he also is going to release a new version soon. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Free hardware: Replica of daughter board of A4000
Recently two projects were dealing with the replica of the mainboard of the Amiga 4000. Now documents are available on Github which provide all information for the self-construction of the daughter board carrying the Zorro slots.

The board layout was "made from ground using the A4000 original schematics". Compared to the original the replica has not any ISA slots but a VGA connector "to use with a VGA metal bracket". (cg) (Translation: dr)
