A3660: Free, 68060-compatible replica of A3640
John "Chucky" Hertell has replicated the A3000/A4000 CPU board A3640. A 68060 processor can be plugged in his board which analogous to the 68040-based model was named A3660. The project was started because many of the A3640-boards was damaged due to leaking capacitors and the modification of such a board is considered to be difficult for a 68060-processor. The developer has published all information about the replica in his blog.

Web browser: IBrowse 2.5 presentations at AmiWest and Amiga32
For years the website of the MUI-based web browser IBrowse has published hints for a forthcoming version 2.5. But these hints only were little texts - and the program itself could not be purchased any longer since the exit of the last publisher IOSPIRIT. Therefore many Amiga users have lost faith in an update.

Dock in Mac OS style: New version of MacLikeDock (update)
In a tutorial for beatifying Workbench, Stefan Egger has pointed out that an updated version of the dock MacLikeDock is available. The program which was originally written for AmigaOS 4 imitates the look and the performance of the dock of Mac OS X. There is an older port of the program to AmigaOS 3, which is also used in Amikit, but this is supposed to be quite bugged. The version of MacLikeDock which is available on his website still has the version string "Mac-Like Dock 3.2 (03.29.13)", but according to Egger includes diverse bug fixes.

Event: Update to Amiga32
Markus Tillmann wrote: One and a half week before the Amiga32 will start on 28. Oktober in Neuss, we want to announce some final information:
- For about three month the event is sold out - 520 persons (exhibitors and honoured guests included) will attend the Amiga32. We could have sold about 150 additional ticktes. Therefore the Amiga32 is one the biggest Amiga events.
- There will be no box office at the event! Therefore it will be useless trying to attend the event without a valid ticket. If you are still interested in a ticket, then we recommend to have a look at our facebook site and at the diverse Amiga forums.
- 27 exhibitors as well as 12 users will be on spot presenting their products and (partly) offering them for sale.
- Several honoured guests also will be participate and most of them will give a lecture. Jeff Porter, Dr. Tim King as well as Jürgen Haage surely can be considered as the most interesting guests.
- All guests also can enjoy wonderful music performed by Blue Metal Rose, Chris Hülsbeck and Mark "TDK" Knight.
- There will be also a draw for which already more than 30 attractive prices have been made available.
- Cloanto will give a free full version of its Amiga emulator "Amiga Forever" of the latest version to each guest.
- Of course everybody will be invited to use our catering service.
- The comeback issue of the Amiga Joker will be available for 5,- Euro.
- On Saturday 9:15 p.m. the Amiga documentation "From Bedrooms to Billions: The Amiga Years" will start in the Hitch cinema. The film will be shown in the original, English-language version. Tickets are available for 5,- Euro and can be ordered from info@amiga32.de or the Eventbrite ticket site.
The organizing team is looking forward to the Amiga32 and wants to give thanks to all supporters!

David Gerber together with Oliver Wagner who died in 2016 have developed the web browser "Voyager". Now Gerber has released the source code of the program on his website. Until the beginning of the new millennium Voyager together with IBrowse and AWeb (its source code was already released in 2002) formed the Amiga browser triumvirate.
