Internet via parallel port: plipbox 0.6
Christian 'lallafa' Vogelgsang's plipbox helps low-end classic Amigas connecting to a network. Linked to the parallel port, the Arduino-based adapter provides a connection to the Ethernet-port of the Arduino board. The magPLIP-protocol is used.
In version 0.6 a new parallel burst transfer mode was added which "really improves the I/O speed on this Amiga port". You can find some performance numbers of this mode under the title link.

Announcement: Sqrxz 3 as collector's edition in a box
After Sqrxz and Sqrxz 2, Frank "phx" Wille has now ported the third part of the Jump'n Run series to the Amiga. Due to the experiences with his own game Solid Gold, Sqrxz' engine was completely rewritten: it now runs with 50 instead of 25 frames per second and in contrast to the Windows and Linux version now also offers level passwords.
Both predecessors are being converted to the new engine aswell, additionally a port of the fourth episode is in progress. The games will be released in a limited collector's edition with profesionally printed disks and a traditional game box. (cg) (Translation: dr)
