> Amiga Forever Value Edition comes in a dedicated Windows version, which is easy to install and run. If you do not intend to use Amiga Forever on a Windows system we recommend that you purchase the Plus Edition or the Premium Edition, which include both Windows and non-Windows content.
(so non-windows users cannot use the (much) cheaper edition...)
I bought Amiga Forever a few years ago in order to get the Kickstart ROMs that I needed to play some games in FS-UAE on my Mac. Trying to actually get the content onto my Mac was more painful than I'd anticipated. "To install the stuff you've just bought, just double click this .msi installer". Heh, thanks.
(I can't remember what I did in the end but I did manage to get the Kickstart ROMs into my Mac.)
It seems they offer an .iso download link now alongside the one for the .msi
The kickstart ROMs are still encrypted on the ISO and AF stores unencrypted versions on disk after you run it but if you're on a Mac/Linux you can use romtool to decrypt them
Where did Cloanto ever refer to this as "encryption"? It is a simple XOR, and it is open source. They always said they were "encoded" because Amiga International or Gateway asked them to. ROM encoding has been supported by UAE since 1997.
(Interesting takeover attempt by the usual "anti Cloanto" trolls.)
