This is something i actually planned on creating myself, but a youtuber named Joshhny Asaski beat me to it. Imagine spending all this time at recording and playing every single game out there? , imagine all the bad games? , all the good ones? , it is an humongous task to say the least. The video here is an incredible 7 hours and 25 minutes long and supposedly got every Amiga game released in it, i...

I have an old Microbotics / Paravision M1230XA accelerator board, and it's not working properly. Can you help me debugging it?

My apologies for the lack of blog posts recently. This has been due to a long personal illness, a death in the family involving travelling to Japan and also work being incredibly busy. Sorry for this but it was beyond my control!

But despite this I have not been idle with my Amigas and indeed have been busy doing work on Icaros Desktop 2.2 upgrade on my Acer AspireOne, Classic Amiga upgrades for my A1200, 2000 and 4000D, and even doing more work on my Amiga 4000T too!

Hello guys,

Hope you’re having a nice Saturday. May is just around the corner and the summer is getting closer. Can’t wait until it gets a bit warmer. We had snow yesterday.
