- Amiga Forever 3.0 - Overview
- {p} {p}
- Amiga Forever contains state of the art software to satisfy two major needs of
- many Amiga users: to share data between Amiga and other systems, and to use

- software, tutorial and reference files which are likely to be of interest to
- any Amiga enthusiast are included with the CD-ROM.

- Amiga Forever 3.0 includes:

- serial (null modem) cable connections, as well as TCP/IP.

- ROM and OS, Cloanto Amiga software, Picasso 96 drivers, etc.) can easily be
- used by other implementations (DOS, Linux, Be, Next, etc.) of these emulators,
- as well as by future new versions. On the CD-ROM version the Fellow emulator
- for DOS and experimental versions of UAE for PowerPC Amiga and PowerMac systems
- are also included. Source code for the emulation software (including the Linux
- version of UAE) is included in the "Archives" directory of the CD-ROM.

- updated, and can be downloaded from the Internet.

- PowerMac version is included in a StuffIt archive, from where it can be
- extracted to the Macintosh hard disk.
