  Deep Sleep

  About Deep Sleep
  The default behavior of Mac OS X is to put sleeping computers in “hardware suspend” mode, during which the RAM is still powered on. This widget allows the computer to enter “software suspend” mode. Software suspend is a feature similar to what Windows calls “hibernation:” the computer consumes no power while sleeping, however the wake up process takes more time to complete.

  Hibernation is made possible by the Mac OS X Tiger v10.4.3 update. This operating system version is required.

  Only the computers with “safe sleep” feature are officially supported. For now, the only computers with this feature are the PowerBook HD line of Apple laptops. Please read the included documentation for more information, including the possibilty to use this widget on unsupported computers.

  E-Uae

  This is a version of UAE, the Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator, with an emulation core largely based on WinUAE. It attempts to bring many of the great features of WinUAE to non-Windows platforms. This version now finally has a name, E-UAE, since that's what everybody was calling it anyway. The 'E' can stand for anything you fancy. Experimental, extreme, exciting, egalitarian, eggplant, . . .

  Currently it will build and run (with a varying degree of supported features) on Linux and other Unices, Mac OS X, BeOS, AmigaOS itself (either for 68k machines or PPC machines with AmigaOS 4.0 and the AmigaOS clones MorphOS and AROS). OS X requires either LibSDL or an X server for graphics output, but native graphics are supported on AmigaOS and BeOS, although, at the moment, SDL is also preferred on BeOS since the native driver is incomplete.
