Workbench distribution: AmiKit XE 11.3
A free update for the Workbench distribution AmiKit, meant for emulators or Vampire hardware, has been released for users of the Version XE (11.x). The changes include several Software updates as well as a reworked startup-sequence, which according to the developers "is much more robust now and takes better care of patches and ROM modules depending on your AmigaOS version."
