New Amiga 500 build
Lately I have been working on a new Amiga 500 build. I decided to pick up a second hand Amiga 500 locally to use for the build, and upgraded it with a bunch of updates which I will cover in this blog post.

It is very cool that in 2023 I can now use real Amiga floppy disks on my Alienware Windows 11 gaming PC, booting using WinUAE.
I can also run a X-Copy clone software called G-Copy to copy ADF and IPF amiga floppy disk images to real floppy disks. All thanks to Greaseweazle V4 hardware and some cool software!
Well, first up, my apologies for such a late first blog post for 2023. To say this year has been crazy busy has been an understatement.
I have been travelling overseas since after Christmas 2022 in Japan and Czech Republic, and only really came back to some normality around 2 weeks ago when I finally returned home.
For my final blog post of 2022, I decided to take a quick look at the recently released C64OS from OpCoders, a brand new operating system for the Commodore 64!
It's been a while since I covered happenings in the AmigaOS 4 world, so I thought it was about time to fix that and give my AmigaOne X1000 system some much needed love!
Would you believe me if I told you that you can buy new release dedicated Amiga magazines in your local newsagent in 2022?
Well, you can. Amiga Addict magazines are now available in your local Australian and UK newsagents, and likely in other countries as well. Here it is in a local Adelaide newsagent this week.
After a long wait, I finally got my MNT ZZ9000 cards this week - one Zorro 2 card for my Amiga 2000 and a Zorro 3 card for another Amiga to be decided!
This week I received another Amiga 1200! This is my second A1200, but hear me out before you judge, there is a method to the madness!
This week saw the release of a new commercial Adventure game for the Classic Amiga called AquAbyss by developers Aged Code, which is delivered over the network your Amiga and utilises network game functionality as well!
