ACID 64 Player Pro is the sequal of Acid 64 Player and is a cycle based Commodore 64 music player designed for playing SID tunes on sound cards/devices that have a real SID chip (6581/6582/8580) on board like the HardSID cards and HardSID 4U USB device.

ACID 64 emulates the MOS 6510 micro processor, the 6526 CIA chip and partially the 6569 VIC chip to run the code of a SID tune and it controls the SID chip on the device for playing the Commodore 64 music.

CBM-Command is a disk manager for the Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 / Commodore C16 computers. It is written like Norton Commander or Midnight Commander, but is much simpler due to the target platforms. Both the C128/C64/VIC20/C16 have their own native version of the application.

Release Notes – Version 1.7 Release Candidate – 2010-08-19

New Features:

• Realtime statistics on file copy and disk image operations.

Changes:

• Fixed bug where disconnecting the drive set as default for the left panel would cause CBM-Command to freeze.
• Fixed bug where using a long name for a created D64 would cause CBM-Command to always treat the drive as a 1581.
• Fixed bug where the name input dialog for creating a D64 had junk in it.
• Other bug fixes that I cannot remember right now.

from Engadget homepage:

Barry’s back, kids! The CEO of Commodore USA  just informed us that, in addition to slapping Commodore stickers on various all-in-one PCs, he has acquired the rights to the Amiga name (we only hope that the process went a little smoother this time around).

The plan is to sell machines that fully support AROS — an open source variant of AmigaOS  3.1 that the kids seem to go crazy for.

We can’t wait to get a look at these bad boys, but for now it looks like we’ll have to do with the picture of an old Amiga 3000. …more
