¿Sabías del acuerdo poco conocido entre ɪʙᴍ ʏ ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴏᴅᴏʀᴇ en 1992?

Cuando 𝘔𝘪𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘧𝘵 decidió concentrarse en Windows 3.1 y dejó de empujar 𝐎𝐒/𝟐 junto a IBM, la historia del escritorio gráfico tomó un giro curioso.

IBM continuó sola con 𝐎𝐒/𝟐 𝟐.𝟎 y presentó una de sus piezas más ambiciosas: Workplace Shell, una interfaz orientada a objetos donde carpetas, programas, discos e impresoras podían tratarse como “objetos” del sistema, no solo como accesos...

Happy 40th anniversary to the Commodore Amiga, released #OTD in 1985! :amiga:

The Amiga 1000 was a powerful and innovative platform, with its 68K CPU and custom chipset, tightly coded OS, and strong multimedia capabilities! Many more models followed the 1000, and It still has a strong following to this day, with new applications and updates released even now!

Only #Amiga makes it possible!

#Retrocomputing

I've been wanting to do this for a long time 💜

I recorded the interactive music Stéphane Picq had created for the game Extase and put it online:

I've released a new version of my #Amiga analysis tool Aira Force. Play and analyse all (about half) of your favourite games. Download from https://howprice.itch.io/aira-force

Do you remember that on Amiga and Atari ST, players could play simultaneously with two mice plugged to the computer? ⚔️🖱️

Unfortunately, this is not possible on modern computers/OS 🪦

For example, here's a video of two people playing Lemmings together on Amiga. They each use a mouse 😀

I wish we could create games that could be played with several mice today.

Este software se llamaba DeluxePaint (EA, Electronic Arts) y ocupaba unos pocos disquetes. Se lanzó en 1985.

En los ordenadores #Amiga tenía el status de aplicación estrella. Era una aplicación tan útil que la gente compraba esos ordenadores solo por el programa.

Este programa es anterior al Photoshop para MacOS que saldría años después.

So happy to own the vinyl record of The Quest for the Time Bird 🤩 (La Quête de l'Oiseau du Temps in French)

I've digitized the music composed by Charles Callet for everyone to enjoy 🎶

Happy listening! 🎧

"NOTE: The tracker can get quite CPU-intensive: a 1.5 GHz processor may be the bare minimum when replaying complex modules (16 tracks with all effects/polyphony on)."

Now you need a 1.5 GHz PPC to play 16-track mods?? 😨

#ChatGPT believes it's just a coincidence that the #Amiga Boing Ball appears on Croatia's national flag, not an official endorsement of the best computer EVER :amiga:

One particular flag caught my attention :amiga:

I entered the #Retrocomputing devroom too late for the talk on the PiStorm, a new CPU accelerator card for your old #Amiga 500.

Eat your hat, John! :amiga:

@coffe What's this awesome #Amiga desktop in a tab? 🤩

Starting to come together.

In case people were wondering:
"It requires AGA because the original game has 16 banks of 16 colors and a 256 color palette which is - added - dynamic. So ECS port would be quite tricky without rewriting the whole game."
