Project: "Become a programmer's sponsor"
Since a couple of days at amigaworld.net
an idea is being discussed to improve attraction to program for AmigaOS4 by starting a financial sponsorship.
The original idea has been to provide free AmigaOne systems but actually all possibilities of sponsoring are discussed.
Because the idea seems to be attractive to many readers (the initiator said there are considerable funds already) a mailing list
has been started which will cover all further discussion.

The aim is the improvement of the communication between users and developers in the Amiga area. Because taking

Review: DVD Burning on Amiga w. LiteOn 8x DVD-RW
The South Wales Amiga User Group (SWAUG) has a DVD burner LiteOn LDW-811S DVD+/-RW on Amiga with software DVDRecord test.
Among their other product reviews
SWAUG rates the product at 89%. Worth noting is that the software in question only supports the Minus format for DVDs. However the LiteOn burner can be inserted otherwise easily at the Amiga and is cooperative in its CDRW functioning, for example it also should work with MakeCD.

AmigaWares: Amiga Apparel by Randomize at Computer City
On account of inquiries about "AmigaWares" the Canadian firm Randomize has notified the Dutch dealer Computer City that they may import Randomize's Amiga apparel for European fans.
In spite of the import fees and the Dutch value-added tax, and owing to the current exchange rate of the dollar, these goods may be offered for about the same price Randomize designated in U.S. dollars - the euro amount may be found by multiplying the dollar price times 1.1.
You'll find an overview in the Fanware section at the new webshop of Computer City. Please mind that this shop is still under construction and the orders and resulting delivery and handling costs must be manually calculated.
