Retro Games Ltd. implies production of an "Amiga (Mini?)" for 2021
In 2018 Retro Games Ltd. introduced the TheC64 Mini and TheC64 Maxi (German) as two ARM-based Linux computers. A THEVIC20 also is in work - there were also rumors that the British company is working on an Amiga replica.

On the Facebook site for 2021 a new product has been announced: The computer only is shown as black outline but reminds of an Amiga 500. Further information are not available. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Tetris clone: Teserae
Originally the Tetris clone Teserae was written for the Atari ST which at the beginning of the 90s was ported to the Amiga 500 in order to learn it. Now the game is available under the title link. According to the website the game runs fine on an Amiga 600 as well as on an Amiga 1200. (snx) (Translation: dr)

ATnoX: ATX power supplies for Amiga (update)
The Amiga 1000 (and, depending on additional hardware usage, also the Amiga 2000 and 3000) require a so-called tick signal not provided by ATX power supplies. It is a 50 or 60-Hz reference signal for the video chipset. ATnoX is an open source board for using ATX power supplies on the Amiga which adds this signal.

Update: (06:52, 15.10.20, snx)
Additional information regarding the Amiga 2000 and 3000. Both mainboards can be configured to generate the tick signal from the clock rate instead (like those Amiga models with integrated keyboard do). This jumper setting reduces accuracy, though. Thus for certain applications, e.g. genlock usage, also these big box Amigas do require a power supply providing the tick signal. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Jean-François Fabre's source codes of WHDLoad slaves on Github
Jean-François 'jotd' Fabre has released all assembler source codes of WHDLoad installers which he wrote or maintained on Github. These are little programs which for example remove copy protection and hardware or Kickstart dependences from a commercial game delivered on disk and convert it in a WHDLoad "slave". This is a program which can be executed by WHDLoad. (cg) (Translation: dr)
