Amiga 1200: Repair part sets turned up
Parallel to the Kickstarter project for a new A1200-case, Petro Tyschtschenko has procured original repair part sets for the Amiga 1200 and offers them under the title link.
On Facebook he wrote in a non-public section in German: Thank you for the first orders at shop.boingbox.de. Actually they are new and original repair sets from 1997, which have become deposited by an Amiga user for 18 years. Choice articles which have not gone yellow or scratched. Partly the A1200-keyboards are packaged in plastic. UK and German version. To provide some support to the community, I agreed to manage the complete order processing.

FPGA: Minimig-AGA-Core 1.1 for MiST-board
For the Atari-/Amiga-clone MiST (amiga-news.de reported), the FPGA-reimplementation of the Amiga with AGA-support is available in version 1.1.
This release mainly fixes bugs. The developers ask you to mind the readme-file - e.g. the AROS-ROM currently does not work together with the Minimig-IDE-implementation.
Changes:
- Fixed mouse issues (fixes games Like Ishar 1, 2, 3, Robinson's Requiem, and many cracktros)
- Fixed keyboard issues (fixes game Walker and probably many others)
- Changes to FPGA clock handling, hopefully this will make a more stable minimig core
- Entering the OSD menu using UP+DOWN buttons on a DB-9 connected joystick has been disabled
- 1 MB kickstart ROM support added (enables you to run AROS ROM or your custom kickstart ROM)
- Firmware now again supports using 256 kB Kickstart ROMs
- Firmware now again supports using Cloanto AmigaForever encrypted Kickstart ROMs
