Amiga 600/1200: PCMCIA-SRAM-card can be preordered (Update)
In the Polish webshop of RetroAmi you can preorder a PCMCIA-card with 4 MB Fast-RAM for the Amiga 600 and 1200. It is equipped with SRAM ICs with 55 ns access time. This is supposed to boost a standard Amiga - according to SysInfo - to 1,67 MIPS (screenshot).
The card will be delivered at the end of August and costs about 50 Euro.
Update: (17:45, 28.05.14, snx)
Please note that the card is not buffered by a battery, thus any data stored in SRAM will be lost once the computer is turned off.

AROS: AEROS 7 Plus available for free for one day
As part of the test run of his app store (amiga-news.de reported), today Pascal Papara offers his Linux-hosted AROS-distribution AEROS 7 for the Raspberry Pi in the plus-version for free (installation guide). This version includes the lx-command, with which it is possible to launch Linux programms from the AROS-Workbench "Wanderer".
So far the App-Store can only accessed with a text-based client, which requires a registration available under the title link (at the very bottom of the page: "Enter the Matrix"). After donwloading the client, you have to control the menu by entering short commands. Once you have logged in and "purchased" the AEROS Plus (article number 58) for zero Indiecoins, you can download the distribution. From tomorrow on the distribution will cost 700 Indiecoins.
