Very Good blog again. The A600 was a bit tuned up. My qousin would not sell it to me years ago.

Can not and will not participate in any other hobbies sadly as the small AmigaGirls take care of any free time.

MSX is Best;)

Hi All,

Today I have written a blog post on installing AmiKit Real 8.1 on my Amiga4000T. Plenty of screenshots!

Link is here:

I hope this is interesting!

Lovely read as usual

How speedy/responsive did AmiKit feel vs OS 3.9+BoingBags?
Any penalties performancewise?

@Epsilon

Excellent read!

Thanks a lot.

it includes fancy features like the menues but all come with a price so I assume that it is slower

BTW it seems that more and more NG users are returning "back to the roots", better and affordable 68k hardware will certainly accellerate this trend

@Epsilon

nice read

thanks

@Overflow

Performance on AGA is not bad with the default installation, but if you use the CGX black magic 1024x768 resolution with 256 colours things slow down a lot as you would expect.

Once you change to RTG and use CGX or Picasso RTG video modes then performance is quite snappy

@all

Thanks for the kind feedback about my blog.

I have updated my blog with Part 2 of my look at AmiKit 8.1 Real on the Amiga 4000T, including the upgrade to the latest AmiKit 8.5 Real version. Lots of screenshots!

Hi All,

Today I added two new blog entries, one looking at the Sum USB keyboard converter for Amiga 4000T, and the other looking at the installation of the Indivision ECS on the Amiga 1000.

I hit some trouble with the installation so any help would be appreciated!

Thank you for the X-Dock review

"Initially the dock is empty but right clicking on the empty dock I can quickly add items:"
You can too add programs/drawers simply by dropping them on a dock.

Nicely done, as usual!

@zzd10h

Yes, you can drag and drop too. I should have mentioned that sorry.

One suggestion would be to add the save function to the right click menu rather that the title bar menu as I lost my changes a few times until I realized that!

Yeah, that was my own fault for not reading the X-Dock Wiki in full and fumbling around on my own. I have read it now

One other point - certain icons like octamed soundstudio, deli tracker ii cause x-dock to close suddenly without saving when added to the dock. Probably it is an icon sizing issue - you might want to try some larger unusual size icons to see if it just a few bad apples..
