Story: It’s a tribute to the Metal Slug Serie from Clément CORDE.

Oh yeah, those glory days, and those glory tunes! Speedball 2, Apidya, Flashback, Jim Power, Shadow of the beast, ... you name it, you sing it.

Now you can re-live the music originally composed by Chris Huelsbeck, David Whittaker, Paul van der Valk, Ron Klaren, Stéphane Picq and others, for games including Dune, Turrican 3, Battle squadron, Unreal, One step beyond, and Lotus III, in full instrumentation and high production quality.

Here’s a video someone put together to show how to set up WIFI access on PCMCIA-enabled Amigas:

I’ve just managed to get some key components working this year, and as a result, the machine is becoming more usable.

I wanted to measure the performance of this Frankenstein machine. Ideally, I’d use standardized benchmarks but I don’t really have a compilation toolchain setup yet. I’m mostly stuck using 68K assembly.

Well, today it has now been 5 years exactly since I started working on this Amiga X1000 blog. Amazing that I have been writing so much and for so long about a true passion of mine!

So you've pulled your beloved old yellowish-brownish Amiga 500 out from the attic - ah, those memories...

A brilliant picture.

Today I am going to look at video playback on the X5000 in particular to the performance of the machine in playing back DVD’s and clips streamed or downloaded from […]

Trevor Dickenson of A-EON showing off the x5000, A1222 Tabor and ALICE laptops.

According to him, he hopes that the A1222 will be commercially available by Amiwest this year (that means about 4 more months.

Today I decided to take a look at the recently released Flower Pot (AmigaOS 4 simplified installation for Mac and Windows), from the creators of AmiKit X which I also looked at recently.

"The Guru Mediation" did an interview with Glenn Keller, former engineer at Commodore, designer of the Paula chip, which is responsible for the Amiga's sound capabilities, serial port, and floppy disc drive interface.

Mr. Keller is a very nice guy, it's a pleasure listening to his ancedotes and information. He talks about the early days of Amiga development, the unreleased AAA chipset, and the longevity and revival of the Amiga system, among other topics.

Thanks to "The Guru Mediation" for the interview, and Mr. Keller for taking the time!
