Hardware-Audio-Player: Prisma Megamix Music Card available
The "Prisma Megamix Music Card", which was originally advertised using the slightly misleading term 'sound card', is now available at Amigakit. Thanks to a built-in hardware decoder, the card plays various music formats (e.g. MP2, MP3, WMA, OGG) without putting stress on the Amiga's CPU.. It has both a Zorro and a Clockport interface.

As examples, the following three questions are mentioned: "What is the emblem of the Stark family?", "When was Space Invaders released?" and "How many genes do humans and sea urchin have in common?".

AmiWest: Dickinson and Solie talk about A-EON's and Hyperion's current projects
This year's AmiWest is taking place in Sacramento (USA) this weekend. The first presentation was a joint effort of Trevor Dickinson (A-EON) and Steven Solie. The latter was introduced as the "AmigaOS team leader", which he confirmed by replying "for now, hehe". Actually, Solie had stopped describing himself as "Team leader" a while ago and only referred to himself as the team's spokesperson, while Costel Mincea was supposed to act as Hyperion's technical director.

Similar to AmiModRadio, the Hollywood-programm ModExplorer plays music modules from the Internet but also supports the Aminet, Modland and modules.pl. The tool is available for all Amiga systems.
As the author explained on a1k.org, version 0.9a among others offers a minimalist "streamer", a (still not finished) ARexx port as well as thanks to the update of MUI Royale the possibility to use the MUI version on Amigas without having a graphic card.

AROS: StackMon 0.1
For his own needs, Yannick Erb has written a little stack monitor based on the source codes of SysMon to see, "how much stack my apps are actually using".
After launching the programm, "just select the task/process you want to look at. If task/process is not in the list click on Refresh button or select auto refresh (task list will be updated every second)." After choosing the tasks/processes, you get two information: The currently used stack (used in the last 20ms) as well as the maximum ("measured while the current task is selected").

DVD: Amiga Future Archive 3
The Amiga Future Archive 3 DVD was released. In fact, it has already been published at the Gamescom, but we had simply no time to announce the release. The Amiga Future Archive 3 includes the following Amiga Future releases as PDF:
- German: Amiga Future Issue 11-115
- English: Amiga Future issue 67-115
Issue 11 to 26 have been scanned. All other issues are PDFs in print quality. The issue 11 was the first German Amiga Future that was published. The issue 67 was the first English edition of the Amiga Future.
There is no upgrade path from earlier version of the Amiga Future Archive DVD. And since we were often asked this at the Gamescom: The next DVD will be released somewhere in 2018 :)
