I've had some more progress with the networking. Instead of boring you with text about it, I thought I'd show you a clip of the progress and give an insight in how a day coding JAmiga might look.

Enjoy:

Well, its almost like that.

New Year's Resolutions?

It's that time of year when people make and often promptly break their New Year's Resolutions.

After more than four months of chasing my own tail on this problem, I had managed to fix up the JIT compiling to let the Kickstart boot using compiled code. (See disclaimer below...)

*Phew*, there were times when I thought I am not going to write this down ever in the blog. I was this >> << close to give it up on some days. Since the world hasn't ended in 2012, I realized I have to go on, there is no escape.

I'm writing this blog to the sound of the annual Christmas pop song medley playing on the radio and with shops and cafes adorned with images of robins, Santa Claus, reindeer and snow.

Given that it is almost the end of the year, I thought it would be good to look back over the year 2012 and significant releases for AmigaOne X1000 and it operating system AmigaOS4 during that time.

I do know (and acknowledge) that there has been plenty of activity around MorphOS, AROS and Classic AmigaOS3.x platforms too in 2012 (I run all three of these platforms as well), but these are not the focus of this AmigaOne X1000 blog as it runs AmigaOS4. It would be interesting to compare MorphOS 3.1 and AmigaOS 4.1.6 performance on the same X1000 hardware, but that's another story!

I decided to try out a recently released tool called Screen Switching Done Right (SSDR) on my X1000!

Today I am looking at Amiboing's recently released game for AmigaOS4 called Santa Monster Shootout on my X1000.

Amiboing has released this game for free, just in time for the Xmas season!
