AmiGBG 2004 - Swedish Amiga Fair
For the third year in a row, the Swedish Amiga fair AmiGBG is arranged in
Gothenburg, Sweden. The date set for AmiGBG 2004 is the 17th of April next
year. The AmiGBG fair is an event which is focused on the Amiga computer
platform and is once a year gathering companies, user groups, users and
visitors who are all interested in or curious about the platform that
created the essence of multimedia - the Amiga.
This year's fair is held by three Amiga user groups all situated in
Sweden; AmiGBG from Gothenburg, ACGGBG (Amiga Computer Group) from
Gothenburg and Syntax Society from Landskrona in the south of Sweden.
In the year 2002 the first AmiGBG event was held. It was a huge success
with around 450 visitors. The year after, it was yet again time to open
the gates for another great AmiGBG fair at Lindholmen, Gothenburg.
AmiGBG is an event that partly looks back upon the history around the
Amiga personal computer, but the main focus lies on the promising future
that this platform now has - in terms of new hardware (the AmigaOne) which
is based on the PowerPC processor and a new version of AmigaOS (Amiga
Operating System) for this new hardware - AmigaOS 4.
At the fair, you will have a chance to see the new AmigaOne systems based
on the G3 and G4 processors and also have a look on the classic Amiga
computers that many people were brought up together with - these days
gathered under the concept Classic Amiga.
At AmiGBG 2004 we also hope to be able to present a complete version of
the AmigaOS 4 running on the AmigaOne. If so, that will be the highlight
of the fair and a starting shot for the comeback of Amiga!
Furthermore; Linux will be demonstrated on AmigaOne, user groups will have
a chance to present themselves - the fair is a gathering force for
everyone interested in the future of Amiga. The target group is of course
people interested in Amiga, but also people that are interested in
alternative computer platforms.
Among the exhibitors, you will find everything from Swedish and European
companies to Swedish user groups. Not only pure Amiga related companies
have been invited - but also other hardware retailers.
For some more information about the previous events held by AmiGBG, please
check these links:

Textviewer: EvenMore updated
I have updated EvenMore exe and plugins to use the OpenURL library for the clickable links, both in the MSWord and HTML plugins, so now if you click on an email address or a Web address, the appropriate app will open.
I have also updated the MSWord plugin to find the correct start and end file positions from the FileInfoBlock (before I was just estimating, which sometimes didn't work).

Emulation: "SheepShaver" Emulates a MacIntosh PPC on x86
"Sheepshaver" is the first Mac emulator for x86 PCs capable of emulating PPC-based Macintoshes. The software currently emulates a 604 CPU, requires a ROM image from a PCI-based "Old World" Macintosh, and works with MacOS up to version 8.6. Sheepshaver is Open Source, and right now only a Linux version is available.
The program's homepage
is currently just a clean building space, with a files section in which you can get the sources for the current version.
On emaculation.com there's a support forum for the emulator. Those interested will find there a few hints for the use of the software, and there are also ready-compiled binaries there for download.

Amizilla Project: Prize Markedly Raised
As Bill Panagouleas shared on ANN, a previous high-ranking executive of Netscape who wishes to remain unnamed has contributed $2000 to the pot for the Amizilla project.
The executive is a longtime Amiga user, who still makes frequent use of WinUAE and the Video-Toaster-Flyer. Altogether there is now the sum of $6200 as a reward to the person or team who ports Mozilla or Firebird and thereby helps the Amiga with a modern browser.
