This document describes the .ADF file format. An Amiga Disk File is a sector per sector dump of an Amiga formatted disk. The intent is to explain in detail how the Amiga stores files and directories on floppy and hard disks. A set of C routines (ADFlib) will be supplied to manage the ADF format. |

Todd Rundgren, Babylon 5, The X-Files, SeaQuest DSV, and even those demo videos – NewTek’s Video Toaster has plenty of 90s nostalgia behind it. But it also demonstrates workflow features in switching, titling, and animation that could easily inspire streamers today. Hang on, I was about to start with an intro, but – frankly, I can’t do any better than this Yorkshire Television-produced CITV show Bad Influence!, the answer to the question “what if Computer Chronicles were not made by complete dorks who were apparently trapped in a low-budget PBS studio?” Please read the rest of this article imagining the voices of these two presenters. “But first have a look at this!” “The AMIIIIGA??!” |

The Amiga was a great computer when it made its debut in 1985, better by far than anything else on the market. At its heart was the wonderchip of the era, the Motorola 68000, the same CPU found in the Apple Macintosh and the Atari ST. But what made the Amiga special was the stuff found around the 68000: three custom chips with the unforgettable names of Paula, Denise, and Agnus. Together they gave the Amiga the best graphics and sound in the industry by a veritable order of magnitude. {5 parts} |

The story of Amiga’s acquisition by Commodore and the subsequent involvement of Atari is a fascinating tale of technological innovation, corporate strategies, and industry turmoil. We will explore the acquisition of Amiga by Commodore, detailing the circumstances and the price paid for the groundbreaking technology, and delve into how Atari, a rival company, got involved in the Amiga saga, and how this convergence of two iconic companies shaped the future of the computing and gaming industries. |

My love for the Amiga began before I got my first, back in October of 1985. Of the various models released during its lifetime, my favorite is the original, the Amiga 1000. Over the past few weeks I’ve spent a lot of time on my 1000 and, as is always the case, the capabilities of this nearly 32-year-old machine amaze me. I’ve put together a bit of a usage demo to highlight some of the system’s features that stand out to me. It’s quite casual and without any particular direction, just me using various programs and prattling on about them. I hope those familiar will enjoy a bit of nostalgia and those not will be intrigued to some degree by this amazing computer. |

A friend came over with his beloved Amiga 500 and wanted me to help him get Kickstart v 3.1 installed. It turned out to be a rev.5 motherboard. The kickstart is basically a part of the Amigas OS, and the software is stored on ROM chips. The Amiga 500 has only one ROM, but other models might have two. |

The original Amiga computer was launched to the public on July 23, 1985, in a legendary demonstration at Lincoln Center in New York featuring the likes of Andy Warhol and Debbie Harry. Prior to that epic event, however, there was another Amiga - a lesser-known member of the family most have never even heard of. Back in 1984/1985 Commodore created a few hundred “Development Edition” machines called the Amiga Development System. Sometimes, due to a very unique early design, they are also sometimes referred to as “Velvet” which was a name for a particular motherboard layout some had. |

Nearly all the magazines in this list could be bought on newsstands and most of them were quite large (>100 pages an issue) and published for many years. In the 90s, the Amiga at that time was probably the computer with the largest number of magazines published per computers sold. The list is not complete - I restrict my list to those I got myself or where I receive some review/opinions and cover scans from you - I'd be happy to see your contribution on this page! |

Everyone knows the big picture. Commodore's Amiga was a desktop PC way ahead of its time, sporting a discrete GPU, sound chip and developer support years before x86 got its gaming boots on. Its demise is equally infamous, the company pissing away a leading position amid mismanagement and incompetence. But did you ever know the small picture? The details? |

Way back in 1989, when I worked for one of the many CBM divisions, I kept a paper that had a list of custom chips that I ran across in my work. The list got a lot of requests and kept growing. When CBM went under I moved the list over to AmigaGuide. It is a simple idea. It is a AmigaGuide sorted by the chip name and its function. Within that there is information on the full chip name, CBM Part Number and Machines used in. The guide covers machines from A500 to A4000T (and AA3000/A3000+) and CDTV(II) to CD32. OCS to AAA chipsets. Cards such as Gemini & A2631. |

Working from floppy. Commodore produced a great many Amiga models, but for several years the gold standard was an Amiga 500 expanded with half a meg of RAM (bringing the total to a full megabyte) and an external floppy drive (bringing the total number to two). For the demo scene, this was the only Amiga configuration that mattered during the late 1980:s and early 1990:s. |

The Cutting Room Floor is a site dedicated to unearthing and researching unused and cut content from video games. From debug menus, to unused music, graphics, enemies, or levels, many games have content never meant to be seen by anybody but the developers — or even meant for everybody, but cut due to time/budget constraints. |

The Daring Rescue of Pacuvia the Sheep is a short, bizarre, traditional interactive fiction game for C64, Amiga, MS-Dos, Windows and Tandy Model 100. But it's also something more, it's a - drumroll - sentimental research project! Your character is an operative of a mysterious “Agency”, on a dangerous mission: rescuing the bioengineered sheep called Pacuvia from the clutches of a guy too idiot to understand what he's got. Strapped of all your digital support for security reasons, you'll have to rely on your good ol' analogic equipment to recover Pacuvia. And don't forget she's not necessarily helpless... |
