Besides our USB Stick offer we will have another bargain at Amiganoid 2011 (17th of September Unperfekthaus Essen/Germany): AMC Discount vouchers (nearly 30% => 20 ? instead of 29.95 ?) will be available from Pascal Papara directly at the show. This enables you to run AMC on three different computers.

Here is a little patch for Icaros Desktop 1.3.1. What's new:

- adds PCI128 range of sound cards support (and sound in VMware)
- adds C-media CMI8738 sound chip support
- updates Intel GMA driver
- updates Janus-UAE with official 1.1 release
- updates MilkyTracker, compiled with newest SDL (no more choppy sound)
- fix many missing icons

As already announced, AMIGANOID 2011 will be held on 17th of September in Essen:

Start: 11am
Unperfekthaus
Room (Raum) 154
Friedrich-Ebert-Str. 18
45127 Essen-Stadtmitte



As Highlight we will sell Amiga-/AROS compatible USB Sticks (4GB) capable of booting directly into IcAros 1.3.1 Amiganoid Edition. The price will only be (about) 3.50 ?. The good price is accomplished by our sponsors "geobiz.de" and "Ares Computers".*

The first update to Icaros Desktop 1.3 is now available for download. This new version of the popular AROS distribution fixes many bugs, enhances integration of Amiga 68K workbench applications and adds the ability to run Janus-UAE in the background at boot time.

The magazine Obligement publishes today an interview with Jason McMullan, who has achieved many improvement to AROS, especially in the 68k port.

Really enjoyable show! I love the part where "Aquario Screensaver" starts automatically (i applied Mazze's port of Garshneblanker)

I'm happy to announce availability of Cube 2 : Sauerbraten for AROS. Cube 2 is an actively developed First Person Perspective shooter with fast game-play, beautiful 3D graphics, featuring many single player maps, a single player campaign mode as well as on-line multi-player game-play.

Our great friend Deadwood has released two amazing ports for AROS: Cube and AssaultCube. They need a graphic card supported by Galliumand and a updated mesa.library, included in a freshly released patch for Icaros Desktop 1.3:

Two new 3D First Person Shooter games have been ported to AROS.
