From Vultures to Vampires Volume 3 - The computer that refuses to die (2010-2023)

A Tale of Struggle and Adversity in the Fight to keep the Amiga alive. From Vultures to Vampires is the fascinating true account of what happened to Commodore after the fateful New York auction sale of 1995.

Volume 3 covers the period from 2010 to 2023 and follows the continuing evolution of next-generation PowerPC Amiga systems and the coming-of-age 68K emulation, coupled with the rise of cycle-accurate FPGA-based Amiga clones.

Thanks to the vibrant community of enthusiasts, developers and makers, plus a few intrepid companies and individuals who, against all odds, continue to pour vast amounts of money into new hardware and software, the Amiga truely is the computer that refuses to die.
