Throughout the years many of us have either stuck to a lovely plain blue Amiga based OS or a fully featured Bloodwych installed ClassicWB. But now thanks to Retrofan, there's another OS you might want to install and that's the latest release of AkReal Version 8.8. This latest software is an unofficial conversion of AmiKit, the high-end distribution of the best classic Amiga software, which has been optimised for real Amiga's with AGA.
According to our good friend Retrofan, he has been working on the conversion for some time, thus enabling the PC based AmiKit to run on a real Amiga or WinUAE with just 16 colours, while also saving a lot of ram for specific patches. In terms of testing however, AmiKit was tested to work with an Amiga with AGA chipset and at least 16 Mb of RAM under emulation, although at least an ACA or 030 accelerator is recommended for real, and it doesn't need FPU...
