    Review: Workbench distribution AmiKit X 10.5.2 
Under the title link Marcin Pianka has published his experiences with the Workbench distribution AmiKit X 10.5.2. 
 
The distribution would consist of free components but for all those users who do not have the time collecting them together and configuring them, AmiKit X offers a solution. And if you want to save spare time and are not about to spend 30 Euro (at once) then you can test a previous version 8.5 (or the V9 for Mac OS X) for free.
