• NTSC only; no PAL support
• A versions of Basic called "ABasiC" and a program called "AmigaTutor" were included (see notes below)

Workbench 1.0 (and 1.1) did not show the icon during a drag. The pointer changed
into a red circle/crosshair, which is visible in this grab (inside the Trashcan icon).

Startup v30.x	Workbench

1. Version information was not included with any of the Workbench or Kickstart disks/files (apart from the "Workbench 1.0" in the Workbench title bar) until Workbench v1.1.
2. This first release version of Workbench was very buggy, and guru'd a lot.
3. Someone on Usenet noted that: "The "ABasiC" included with this release was developed by Metacomco, who originally developed AmigaDOS. There are quite a few programs (e.g. on early Fish disks) for ABasiC, including some nice card games, backgammon, 3D Maze, etc. When I bought my first A500 in 1987, it came with some PD disks which had ABasiC programs on, as well as the ABasiC executable. Note that ABasiC only works on Kickstarts up to 1.3. This is because the technique it uses to attach a CON: window to an existing window is not supported in 2.0 and up."
4. Someone noted on UseNet that years ago a catalog disk was received from an American company called "Chiron Conceptions Public Domain." Listed in this catalog were some very early Amiga demos, used when the Amiga was launched in 1985. They require a pre-1.0 Kickstart, version 27.3, to work. Below is the listing from the PD catalog:

VERSION 27.5 DEMO DISKS

CC-001 --VERSION 27.5 KICKSTART

Pre-release version of the Amiga Kickstart. Needed for some disks.
(Note: Will not work on the Amiga 500 or 2000)

5. Markus Bieler notes that his first A1000 had a Kickstart disk labeled (hand-written) v0.9beta Release 29.2
