Prototype: Minimig-case in A1000-style
In mid-January, Thomas 'Tommes' Koch had presented his designs for a Minimig-case which is similar to the design of an Amiga 1000. Now Koch has a first prototype produced and presents photos of it (is still not varnished) for the first time:

ACube Systems: onchipmem.resource for Sam460ex-boards
With the onchipmem.resource, under AmigaOS 4.1 ACube Systems provides developers access to the buffer memory of the APM460Ex-SoC. This is much faster than the main memory, nearly as fast as the level-2-cache of the processor.
The buffer is meant to handle application data or to faster exchange data with the video memory. The archive includes a description as well as example source code.

Accelerator board: Vampire 600 is stable
Two years ago Igor Majstorovic announced the FPGA-based accelerator board Vampire 600 for the Amiga 600. According to the developer in the VooDoo-Amiga forum this board is stable and is currently tweaked. He then is going to produce (after the revision) 50 boards with 8 MB memory, and then with 64 MB.
Compared with accelerator boards which have a proper 680x0-processor, like the Fúria EC020, currently the Vampire has a lower performance speed (checked by Sysinfo): With a 72 MHz clocked FPGA, 1332 Dhrystone-instructions per second, compared with the Fúria, which features 4846 on its 28 MHz MC68EC020FG25.

A-EON Technology: HD-Audio-driver working

Actually now under AmigaOS 4 sound output is possible over the onboard-chip. Therefore there is no need for a PCI-sound board any more. Currently he is working on the AHI-driver.
