I think AmiWest 2009 will be most remembered as the year everything changed. For starters, the show was extended to two full days on Saturday and Sunday. Friday night before the show was changed from the usual vendor gathering to a full blown repair centre with all sorts of Amiga equipment being soldered and fixed. Seminars were also added to the show this year where attendees could learn about specific topics of interest related to the Amiga. Hyperion Entertainment changed their corporate structure. AmigaOS changed owners. The show will be changing venues next year. The restaurant we frequented closed down. Change was definitely in the air.

Yes folks, the court case is finally over.

Yes, you read the title right! You can WATCH us record Amiga Roundtable live. This is a beta thing, so by no means does this mean it's going to be 100%

Also some people will be excluded from watching as this is being sent via flash since we have no way in place to rebroadcast it via Shoutcast. But the video will be available later in Quicktime as well as uploaded to Youtube and Ustream. If anyone is willing to convert it to another format, let me know and I will happily get you a copy as soon as the show is done so you can re-encode it. Audio will also be made available soon after.

As AmigaOS 4.1 update nears the testing phase, we bring you a sneak preview of the new CD, and how it's been improved to make using and installing the CD even easier.

We are pleased to announce availability of the new Indivision ECS. This advanced internal scandoubler / flicker fixer is a great way of hooking up a modern VGA monitor / LCD display to your Amiga.

After a long offline time the SDK database is finally BACK.
One HD in the old RAID1 setup failed and the tries to swap out the faulty drive and rebuild the RAID failed. It's hard times in Spot's life, and I couldn't afford new drives at this time, that's when Varthall stepped up, and unselfishly paid for one of the new drives as he liked the service they offered.
After that I managed saved up for the remaining one, and here you go the service is back!

The download area of the Amiga Future homepage has been updated again.

There are new full versions online.

ACube Systems Srl and EDITEL Snc are pleased to announce that the well known AmigaOS 4 game "BOH" is now part of the Sam440 Software bundle.

Every customer who will buy a new Sam440 (both EP and Flex) will have the opportunity to buy a boxed copy of this new innovative game at the price of 12,00 EUR (+ local taxes). This offer is extended to existing customers who will provide their serial number as a proof of purchase.

This bounty consists of two phases both assigned to AmiCygnix developer Edgar Schwan.

First bounty covers phase one and will bring an up-to-date Apache, MySQL and PHP to AmigaOS4.1 via AmiCygnix.
The package will contain a minimal AmiCygnix installation, so you won't need to install the large AmiCygnix base package.
A bounty of minimum EUR 500 must be reached for Edgar to port these applications.

When phase one is complete, we will open a bounty for phase two. Phase two consists of a fully native port of Apache, MySQL and PHP utilising whatever the current version of AmigaOS4.x has to offer. A bounty of EUR 300 must be reached to get the fully native port.
