So I was reading my email one day and what do I get but an email from the current owner of Amiga.org! He has agreed to come on to Amiga Roundtable and answer some questions from the community. If you have a question for him, now is the time to ask it.  Read More →

I have to say that this is a pretty cool idea to help get some traction on getting an Amiga family OS adopted by a few more users. The name pretty much says it all. Nothing is more annoying then a paper cut. It hurts and you never see it coming, but when it does happen, it’s sure to make you swear and curse for a good day or two. This project’s aim to get those pet peeves in AROS fixed.  Read More →

This video has been out for some time, and the word spread like wild fire on the Amiga community forums. This, is by far, one of the biggest things to happen in the Amiga Community since the release of Amiga OS4. And I personally, wanting to be an OS4 user but not being able to afford new hardware, am as pleased as punch about this!  Read More →

Mikej over at Amiga.org has posted in the forums as well on his website, that he is ready to start taking orders for his FPGA Arcade board, that is capable of emulating classic Amigas. Not only is this a light at the end of a long tunnel, but a welcome bit of news in a community hungry for hardware.  Read More →

If you’re wondering why I am posting this instead of an Amateur Radio story, then please read the full article and you will understand.

One of the first people I met at AmiWest back in 2007, was Steven Solie. He was setting up maybe 10 feet away from me, next to Bill P. from DiscreetFX. While there I was able to interview him and see his presentation on what he was then working on. Now, he shares his experience of getting his beta Amiga One X1000 setup experience.  Read More →

I’m not a fan of New Kids on the Block, but this title just jumped out at me when I saw the story over at ARRL.ORG that NASA is looking for more astronauts. Currently there are only 59, where a decade ago, there was 150. Since the retirement of the Shuttle, the numbers have been going down.  Read More →

I was getting ready to go to bed with my fiance’, so I was making one last check of my email before I headed to dreamland. When I checked our super secret email list for those of us that host Amiga Roundtable, Bill and Sean had posted replies to a discovery made by TheDaddy on some of the community forums. Some pictures that were released by Commodore USA seem to have been lifted from a magazine’s... 

For 10 years, QuantumLink was the online service for Commodore 64 users. It offered mail, online chat as well as games and public domain files for download. In October 1995, the company changed their name to America Online, and are still know by that name the world over today. Slowly, Commodore users dropped off or switched platforms and the focus of the service centered on PCs and Macs. But QuantumLink... 

The Amiga community has been debating and discussing the whole Commodore USA situation for months now. While this has been going on, C=USA has put their promotional machine into overdrive, and it has been paying off. Now Rolling Stone magazine’s Scott Steinberg is giving his take on the new Commodores and Amigas.  Read More →

From the website: “The aim of the site is to showcase the best of amiga public domain, shareware and freeware games which were available during the 1980s and 90s and provide ADF or DMS disk images for download.”  Read More →

It is the best of times, it is the worst of times; seem to be the sentiments amongst the polarised individuals that in some way, big or small, still maintain a connection to the Amiga, be it classic or NG. Whom do you believe? There are many who saturate the various online forums with spades of evidence that this is the best of times. Never has there been so much choice available to the non-conformist... 

I’ve been surfing the boards to kinda get a feel for what’s on people’s minds in the Amiga Community. Some of what I have been seeing just seems like bull shit to me. People jumping on people for what to me seem like trivial matters. Someone jumped on someone else for a media release because it contained the words “For Immediate Release”, not realizing this is a standard... 

There is some really good coverage done by the guys over at Touch Arcade of the upcoming Amiga emulator for the iPhone OS platform. I think the iPad makes an excellent retro gaming platform and am looking forward to getting one and playing some of my Amiga favourites.
