Vampire V4 (standalone) boots AmigaOS 3.1
For the first time a video shows how the standalone version of the Vampire is booting AmigaOS 3.1. First it is booted without any volume and you can see that a modified Kickstart-ROM is used: "68080 Apollo Team, Test Exec Build, Not for public Use!". The second time a CF-card was connected to the computer which starts the Workbench without any problems - even a bit slowly according to the tester.

MorphOS: AppLauncher.sbar 2.1 (Update)
Thomas Igracki's screenbar module for Ambient's AppLauncher (screenshot) makes it possible to "start any application from every (public) screen without the need to switch to the Ambient screen or remember hotkeys". And the author also wrote: "This screenbar module opens a popup menu if you click on the butterfly symbol in your screenbar. There you can select the application you want to start!"
Version 2.0 offers a menu editor for a more simple configuration.

Image editing: RNOEffects 1.1
RNOEffects is an image editing software for AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS created with Hollywood and focused on batch processing and alpha channel based effects (screenshot). It offers about 30 different effects incl. drop shadows, elliptic crop - "which would need several steps on other similar programs" - drawing options for brushes, text, lines, ellipses, boxes, and arrows.
The author also wrote: "All effects can be applied to images in a freely selectable order in a batch conversion or image joining process. Unlimited amount of images can be joined as a single image. Can save multiple images to a single PDF file."
The program is available under the title link as well as via Grunch.

Web browser: NetSurf 3.8 (SDL version)
About two weeks ago Artur Jarosik as released an update of his Amiga port of the web browser NetSurf. His port is based on SDL, only the preferences pane is based on MUI, and is not to be confused with the Chris Young's native, Reaction-based version.
Notice of the editorial: The AGA version 3.8 does not run on the Amiga 1200 equippd with Blizzard-1230 accelerator board of our editor Daniel Reimann - it crashes with Guru-Meditation (80000008). According to the developer the M68060-compiler-switch he did use is not compatible with a 68030 processor with 68881-FPU. Besides, the auto update for the AGA version is broken and therefore has to be downloaded from the title link.

Chip-RAM extension: ACE2 by Individual Computers
For a few weeks Individual Computers has been offering "ACE2". This extension adds two Megabyte Chip-Ram to most of the OCS/ECS-Amiga. Because the board contains two components which are not available any more - the 2MB ECS-Agnus-Chip and a PLCC84 adapter socket - the producer has chosen a "progressive pricing model": The lower the availability of ACE2 the more the price increases. The first price was 120 Euro meanwhile it costs about 130 Euro. The maximum price will be 170 Euro.
