AROS: New official Snapshot
A new snapshot of the Amiga Research Operating System (AROS) for x86-systems is available for download under the title link. It is dated on February 7th and unlike the so called 'Nightly Builds' it was shortly tested from different developers until its official release today.

MorphOS: FuhQuake 0.31
Mark Olsen adapted FuhQuake for MorphOS. This is a Win32/Linux-Quakeworld-Client, which among other things also brings about some visual effects (screenshots).
Required are in addition to a lot of memory both the latest version of TinyGL (the 3D update) and the original Quake files. If you want to compile FuhQuake on your own, you'll need TinyGL-SDK and the latest update of Libnix.

MorphOS: Interest in DVB-S playback software? (Update)
At the title link, MorphZone published information by Ralph Schmidt about a MorphOS program for DVB-S playback (support for DVB-T and DVB-C could be added by some further work as well). It's been used for prototyping the technology and thus not fully polished yet to be useful for sale.
Therefore there is the question if there is a big enough interest for such a program to justify polishing it to sell it. A few unsharp cam pictures of it with a down-scaled window are available at MorphOS-News.de. A poll for the interest in this software will be added at MorphZone as soon as some technical difficulties will be solved.
Update: (11:18, 11.02.06, snx)
Meanwhile the poll is online at MorphZone and can be found on the left side of the main page.
