GFX-BASE: Interview with Coyote Flux
Richard Kapp:
We have a new and very interesting (English) interview at the GFX-BASE: This time we have spoken with the software-group 'Coyote Flux', programmers of CoyoteSound or the PC SNES emulation SuperAmicon. The members of Coyote Flux revealed some new details of their newest project JMiner (a software, which uses video-streams to generate out of the surface a complete 2D or 3D model).

Furthermore Coyote Flux disclosed while the interview, that they own a G3/G4 Amiga-based supercomputer. Sure we had to request and they told us this would not be a late April fool hoax and futher details will be given to public in the close future. (ps) (Translation: ub)

O'Reilly Network: The AltiVec Difference (Update)
On April, 5th 202 Craig Hunter has released an article on O'Reilly Network about the AltiVec unit of the G4-PPC processor.

In this article he describes in a general and simple way the advantages of the SIMD programming (Single Instruction Multiple Data) against the computing with single values. He also shows the AltiVec support of the gcc with short examples like vector addition with vec_add().

It also contains information about the performance of AltiVec code against code without AltiVec usage. (sd) (Translation: gf)

OSNews.com: Dear Amiga Inc., Could I Make a Few Suggestions?
Udo Melis:
I have watched the progress of the "new Amiga" (OS and hardware) over the past couple of years. Given the past history of Amiga, I am happy to see that the company has been taken over by true fans of the Amiga OS, who have a workable vision. In general, I think you came up with a good overall strategy.
Please read the complete OSNews article under the title link. (ps)
