Forty years ago today, the Commodore Amiga 1000 was released to the world. With its unprecedented graphics & sound capabilities, powerful 16-bit CPU and custom chipset, and UNIX-like multitasking OS, the Amiga was a truly revolutionary system for its time. And, many are still in use to this day, with the platform seeing new software and hardware development from month to month.
I presently have three, myself. :-)
Happy 40th, Amiga!

I am checking out a few Amiga disk images and I gotta admit: This one had me confused for a bit.
As shown in the attached screenshot of DirectoryOpus, I had found a savegame with a file date "older" than the game it originated from. At first, I thought this to be very unusual. Then I remembered: Back in the day, Amigas did not usually have a real-time clock with a battery backup, so every time you booted up the system, the clock would be reset to a fixed date and time!
I'm feeling kinda stupid right now.

In the latest blog post on Datagubbe.se, entitled "BRA and KET: String Interpolation in AmigaDOS", Swedish tech nerd and software developer Carl Svensson takes a look at an often-overlooked detail of AmigaDOS: using the rarely documented terms BRA and KET, the article shows how to easily embed variables in strings:
