A1200NG: New photos of the emulator-based mainboard
At the title link AmigaKit has published further photos of its ARM- and emulator-based mainboard A1200NG (amiga-news.de reported). The latest and probably final revision of the hardware, which corresponds to the Amiga 1200 mainboard in terms of dimensions, has a sound mixing circuit and a CDDA feed, as well as a connection for a 12-volt power supply and the option of connecting SATA and IDE drives to internal USB headers.
Greaseweazle technology for reading and writing various floppy disk formats has been integrated. On the software side, AmiBench is used as the desktop interface, as with the A600GS, and FinalWriter 7.2 will be one of the included application programs - which A600GS owners will receive as a free update. Different operating systems and ROMs can then be used on the A1200NG.

Obligement: Interview with Simon Neumann (Alinea Computer)
At the title link, David Brunet has conducted an interview for Obligement with the graduate engineer Simon Neumann, managing partner of the Amiga dealer Alinea Computer and partner of the publisher Look Behind You.
In it, he reports that he is able to make a living from these two ventures and announces that the Octodapter - an extension that allows up to ten joysticks to be used for appropriately designed games - will definitely be launched on the market this year. As a publisher, he is disappointed with the sales figures for the Amiga 3.2 Reference Manual, with the German edition in particular falling short of expectations.
