Review of WIZ : Quest for the Magic Lantern for the Commodore Amiga - Episode 81
This week on 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast I am reviewing the new game "Wiz: Quest for the Magic Lantern" for our AGA Commodore Amiga computers with my son, Daniel. This great new game from Mutation Software is available now.
AmigaOS 3.1.4 is fantastic by itself, but the "Best Workbench" suite by Gulliver makes it even better. He has put together a suite of some really great utilities that bring even more features and versatility to our new Workbench. Take a look, and for goodness sake, download these utilities!

A rare mid week video from 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast. I saw this really funny video on Bad Lip Reading - The "Shallow" song from the Grammy's done in true BLR Style as "Chocolate Lagoon".
The neutral tones looked like they would convert perfect into the HAM6 video format that I sometimes use for playback on real Amigas. The results were better than I would have hoped. Check it out!
Please subscribe to BLR - They are fantastic!

This week on 10MARC I am covering some of the many USB peripherals we can use on our Amiga computers. If you have a USB enabled Amiga, you can do more than just use a USB mouse, keyboard and flash drive. Join me as I experiment with a few interesting things we can do (or try to do) with USB on the Commodore Amiga.
