Digital copies of Amiga magazines at archive.org
The Internet Archive should mainly be known for its Wayback Machine which since 1996 has been taking snapshots of the current state of many websites.

Besides, many printed magazines have been scanned and made available to the general public, among others many computer magazines.

About the Amiga for example 104 issues of the British CU Amiga can be read and are available as PDF or EPUB document. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Breakout game: BabeAnoid 2.5b1
Richard Fhager's Breakout game BabeAnoid was written in AMOS and released ten years ago. In 2003 version 2.0 was released. The next version 2.5 was never released because the author stopped developing Amiga software.

Upon request of an a1k.org-reader Fhager has provided a download link for a beta version BabeAnoid 2.5. This beta version is being not developed further and according to the author possibly has included "some special modes". BabeAnoid requires a 68020 as well as 2 MB RAM. It could be also played with computers with only 1 MB Chip-RAM if some preferences are set to a lower level.

The team of ohloh.net described the happening in a blog on its site. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Workbench replacement: X-bEnCH 0.73 (beta version)
X-bEnCH is an Amiga game launcher with 128 colors on screen (even on a simple A500). This frontend autoscans the harddisk to find WHDLoad games or .exe files and and organizes them into launching listings. X-bEnCh also has an integrated CLI fully compatible with the Workbench CLI feature.

Version 0.73 is a bugfix release:
  • Fixed the display speed problem on little cpu (68000/68010) in the menu
  • Fixed the display speed problems on high end cpu (68040/68060) in the menu and the launcher
  • Fixed a bad multitasking management when launching an .exe file
