11.10.2021 - 'Turbo Chameleon 64 ' Core update 9p released
'Turbo Chameleon 64 ' is an extremely user-friendly multipurpose C64 cartridge that can be used without opening the computer. It is just plugged to the expansion port of the C64. It can also be operated as a stand-alone unit (since it's basically an FPGA computer like the C-One in a C64 cartridge case), replacing the computer, the floppy drive and the heavy power supply. A docking station providing 4 joystick ports and connectors for an Amiga or C-64 keyboard is available. New in this core, besides several bugfixes: - NMIs were still enabled when initially starting the menu system, this could cause subtle problems in some rare situations. Filebrowser: - added support for swaplists (.lst/.vfl) to mount multiple disks at once. - BUGFIX: autostart with LOAD (CBM+E) did not work correctly when the device number was 10 or 11

07.10.2021 - 'Amiga 2000 EATX PCB' revision 2.0 announced for November
The purpose of this project is to develop an open source Amiga 2000 PCB in the EATX form factor, an ATX variant that allows slightly deeper PCBs. There are one-to-one board replacement projects for the Amiga 2000, but none to change the layout to meet current form factor standards. In addition, the Amiga 2000 made use of connectors and custom parts that are no longer commercially manufactured. This often requires parts to be pulled from existing machines. As such, this project will make use of only actively supported components when possible. New in Rev. 2.0 will be: - Supports both Agnus 8372A and Agnus 8375 (A500+/A600 variety) on the same board. - Added external floppy drive header. - Support for two real-time clock options. - Moved Zorro bus termination. - Cleaned up the schematics
