On July 19 2025, a massive Icon Theme Pack
by JTDigitalDesigns (Jari Tuovinen) is released, it is called Infinite Icons Theme Pack.
It features nearly 6,000 brand-new DualPNG icons, primarily designed for AmigaOS 4,
but also perfect for AmiKit users and other platforms that support this icon format.

VIDEO > Amiga 40th Anniversary: A Celebration with Friends!
Join me as I attend the Amiga 40th Anniversary Event at the Centre For Computing History, in Cambridge UK. RJ Mical was to attend, along with famous game devs of the era. Even better, the venue would be stacked with vintage electronics and amazing vintage computers, from Mini Computers, to games consoles. Lets have fun on my computer history museum tour!
Yes, it is technically possible to power an Amiga A1200 using rechargeable dry cell batteries, though it’s not common due to power limitations. The A1200 requires stable 5V (around 2A) and 12V (around 500mA), which can be achieved using battery packs with step-up/down voltage regulators. While AA NiMH cells can be used, they are bulky and may not supply enough current for reliable operation. Li-ion batteries (like 18650 cells) are a better choice, often used by hobbyists to create portable Amiga setups with custom voltage regulation. These projects have been done before and shared on forums and YouTube. However, care must be taken to provide clean, sufficient power and ensure battery safety.
