Hi Amiga Community,
It’s here, the voting phase for the Awards event at the AMIGA/040th is starting now. What are we voting for? We are presenting 10 categories for awards to be presented at the AMIGA/040th in Mountain View, CA, on August 1st. Our categories cover games, productivity, hardware, and Amiga demos. With tens of thousands of possible entries across those broad categories, narrowing them down to just a handful of choices was hard work. We appreciate the community jumping in to help with the nomination process. It was great to see so many folks submit their favorites.
As with the nomination, the voting is done via a Google form. We ask one vote per person. We reserve the right to reject any votes for any reason. The form allows multiple visits, so don’t think you need to answer everything in one shot. There is so much cool stuff that it would be hard to select something in every category right off the bat anyway.
To make it easier to track down what to vote for, we have put all the entries with a link to something about that entry below. If a link is wrong or a better one is available to represent the entry, drop a note in the comments!
Voting concludes on June 29th.
Thank you!

Hi Perry,
Thank you for bring that up! There are so many amazing games, tools, applications, and demos out there we could not capture them all, I wish I could have. As for the VD0 device, I found this write up you did on Amiga.org back in 2010. Nice write up.
Why is Elysium in AGA demos?
That was my mistake.
