July 1995 The Beehive Logo. At the first Amiga Technologies GmbH press conference, several pictures of a new design for an Amiga tower case were released. The design had a small `beehive'-like logo which was obviously intended as a new symbol for the Amiga. When these pictures were distributed on the Internet, much dicussion ensued on the Amiga-related Usenet newsgroups. In general, people liked the design of the tower case but were unsure about the small triangular logo. |

Background. The Amiga custom chips (affectionately named Alice, Lisa and Paula in the AGA version of the chipset) were remarkably powerful for their time, enabling the Amiga computers — with their modestly-powered CPUs — to perform graphical and musical feats that required heavy computation on most contemporary platforms. This challenge aims to discover just how powerful these chips really are by exploring what they can do completely on their own, without the CPU even telling them what to do. |

TOGA, The Other Group of Amigoids, was formed in 1991 by Lawrence Brown. He had moved to California from another state where he was involved with an Amiga user group called Amigoids. Lawrence is no longer involved with our group. He currently works for Cisco Systems in Menlo Park, CA. While with Cisco and with Cisco's help, he was actively involved in getting computers (specifically Amigas) in to local schools. |

{PDF Document} Purpose and Audience. This book describes, mainly by coding examples, the code patterns that perform well on PowerPC processors. The book will be particularly helpful to compiler developers and application-code specialists who are already familiar with optimizing compiler technology and are looking for ways to exploit the PowerPC architecture. It will also be helpful to application programmers who need to understand and tune the output of PowerPC compilers and to faculty members and graduate students specializing in the study of compilers. |

An aspirational goal is to build walkthroughs for various Amiga development topics. {send to ADF: send2adf, it's a C based tool that you can keep in your /usr/local/bin folder, no fancy installations. Straight from terminal you give a folder and all files are added in one shot to an ADF. ADF.inder: ADF.inder allows you to browse ADF files, look at their content in a quickview style and much mor. Both for macOS |

The Sage IV computer was the ideal development platform used by Commodore engineers for testing and refining early hardware prototypes. It was essentially a development and debugging environment that helped simulate the behavior of the eventual Amiga hardware. As the Lorraine prototype was being developed, it used a combination of early versions of the Motorola 68000 processor and custom chips that would form the backbone of the Amiga architecture. |

The aim of the SEUCK Vault is to gather together the very best games created with SEUCK on the Commodore 64 and the Amiga. We are also looking for previously unreleased titles, your stories about how you used the Kit, and also the tips and tricks that make using the Kit easier. |

We spoke with developer Svein Berge, as well as another Svein Berge, about Twintris on the Amiga. In 1990, the German publisher Digital Marketing released an Amiga game called Twintris. It was essentially an attempt to recreate the legendary puzzle game Tetris, but specifically inspired by Atari’s arcade version of Tetris. As a result, much of the focus was on two players competing against each other simultaneously on a split screen. |

Why is the Kickstart disc in the left hand when the disc drive on the Amiga 1000 is on the right side? In 1985 the Amiga 1000 came to life. With it the Amiga Kickstart v1.0 and the Amiga Workbench v1.0 also came into our lives. All of us who´s been around an Amiga in the 80´s or the 90´s are familiar with the Amiga Kickstart logo (the left hand holding a disc) but are we all clear about why the disc is held in the left hand? Sheryl Knowles, the artist behind the Amiga Kickstart logo image, was right handed and when creating the logo itself she held the disc in her left hand drawing it with the right. |

Next month marks the 30th anniversary of Andy Warhol's death. He died eight days after Valentine's Day in 1987, at the age of 58. So it's a good time to look back at how one of the art icons of the 20th century first confronted the arrival of a genuinely new technology - the personal computer. |

One company out of the UK back in 2007/2008 decided to try and actually bring back a computer with the Commodore brand that paid homage to its gaming history. In fact, they called themselves Commodore Gaming. It was just a Windows PC in Commodore clothing, but at least the clothes had some style. The idea went something like this. |

{...} I wrote for COMPUTE!'s Gazette (during the General Media years) and Loadstar. Here's me with Jack Tramiel and his son Leonard from a Computer History Museum event in 2007. It's on my wall. So with all that said, and from someone who loves, uses and works with Commodore computers to this day: there's not much point in buying Commodore. |

Controlling your house’s thermostat with your phone may seem cutting edge, but in the 1980s, you could program a Commodore Amiga to do the exact same thing. Thirty years later, one such archaic system, at least, is still hard at work. |

After years of mismanagement and questionable product tie-ins, the 80s computer brand is back, now with a fan at the helm. But is the appetite for retro gaming still big enough for it to succeed? |

{...} Rob Smith Dev has shared on their YouTube channel over two videos (1, 2) of them building the game (via Hackaday), called DiskFight. The Amiga-based machine challenges you with popping in floppy disks at high speed to gain points. Smith created their own linear actuators to load underneath the floppy disks, to give springs under the floppy disk the force to either entirely bounce out of their holder, or press up just a little. |

On April 23, 1987, Thomas Rattigan drove to work just as he would any other day. But when he arrived at Commodore’s office building in suburban Philadelphia that morning, company guards informed him he’d been fired. They escorted him from the premises, not even giving him a chance to gather his family photos from his desk. It sounded like a cruel April Fool’s joke, but it wasn’t April Fool’s Day. That was the day Commodore promoted him, on April Fool’s Day 1986. Rattigan ended up having the last laugh, although it took a few years. |
