The special edition of AmiKit distrubuted on CD was available for people to buy or was given away for free to anybody who was willing to take it? It looks marvelous :)

I got it...
It was for sale at 5 Euro, just for covering expenses, in a very nice packaging... With the possibility to donate more to support it.

Great work! :)

@jthomas

Thanks for the info.

@AmiKit

Have you ever thought about releasing a version of amikit for 68K amigas with graphics cards ?

@Jurassicc

Yes, but I still think it would be a step back - mainly with regards to speed and other features/possibilities. (But there is another project being converted to classics.)

Moreover I think the majority of the classic users (especially those with graphics cards) are experienced users actually and therefore I assume they've already built their own system themselves, you know, while AmiKit on WinUAE is of great benefit for newcomers. The experienced classic users can always rip off the AmiKit and use the things they particularly need.

In addition, I do not own the "classic" HW anymore. I would like to focus on OS4 instead.

Well last night i thought i'd give it a go.
So i installed Amikit on a PC, zipped it up and copied it over to the classic. Slowly installing it bit by bit over my 3.9 CGX4 partition and replacing components with ppc ones where appropriate.

I can see what you mean about the speed elements, but it is usable. I'll post a few grabs in the gallery of ripped Amikit on my Classic once I've finished.

I'm gonna have a go at installing it under OS4 E-UAE too just for fun.

@AmiKit

I was looking at the aminet.net/recent list and saw "AmiKit_140.jpg". Boing!!! The question: -- is the Cherry Blossom Girl -- Jeri Ryan ? It sure looks like her! I watch "Shark" on CBS TV all the time. She recently lost her job as District Attorney of L.A. Do you remember her as the Borg "7 of 9" on Voyager ? It's an interesting coincidence that the new series -- Bionic Woman -- stars Michelle Ryan. If I get my A1 running ever again, that would a nice background to have!!!!
Congrats on the new AmiKit release!

@Snuffy

Heh, heh, yes! She is Jeri I know her as Seven of Nine, though.

Hi @Jurassicc

I'm gonna have a go at installing it under OS4 E-UAE too just for fun.

You won't like it when you try to run it! It's awful slow because of the Non JIT of Euae! Start with killing all of Ken Lester's Icons. I tried IconBeFast, but that won't cut it. Look at the size of the icons!
