Digital Almanac III - Amithlon
Thanks to Harald Frank it was possible to present DA III running on
"Amithlon" on the event which took place last Friday in Mutterstadt, Germany.
There was greate positive responsiveness to that presentation.
Calculation speed did not rank behind comparable PC programs.
So, the only planetarium program left for the Amiga also runs under
Amithlon without problems.

MPEG-Audio-Player: MAD for 68040 and MorphOS
Today we have a brand new port-release for you .. madplay, the best
mpeg-audio player out there .. this will make a nice complement to
the LAME encoder...
The archive comes with binaries for 68040 and MorphOS...
Please read the included amiga.readme for special instructions on usage!
From the MAD README:
MAD has the following special features:
- 24-bit PCM output
- 100% fixed-point (integer) computation
- completely new implementation based on the ISO/IEC standards
- distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)
Because MAD provides full 24-bit PCM output, applications using MAD are
able to produce high quality audio. Even when the output device supports
only 16-bit PCM, applications can use the extra resolution to increase the
audible dynamic range through the use of dithering or noise shaping.
Because MAD uses integer computation rather than floating point, it is
well suited for architectures without a floating point unit. All
calculations are performed with a 32-bit fixed-point integer
representation.
Because MAD is a new implementation of the ISO/IEC standards, it is
unencumbered by the errors and copyrights of other implementations. MAD is
NOT a derivation of the ISO reference source or any other code.
Considerable effort has been expended to ensure a correct implementation,
even in cases where the standards are ambiguous or misleading.

Event: World of Amiga South East
So are we! On Saturday 3rd of November 2001 the World of Amiga
Southeast show is taking place at Poplars Hall, Shenfield, Essex, UK.
This is the ideal opportunity for you to come along and show all those
who that think the Amiga market is dead where they can shove it!
We have worked tirelessly to bring you some of the biggest names in the
Amiga Industry to World of Amiga Southeast 2001
Amiga, Elbox, Eyetech, Cloanto, & Pagan Games are amongst those who are attending the show ready to see in the new era of Amiga Computing with the eminent launch of the AmigaOne/SharkPPC Zico Spec Machines and beyond.
James Daniels, Paul Burkey and Fleecy Moss are just some of the Amiga Celebes will be in attendance at WoA Southeast.
However, all our hard work will be for nothing if we have a poor turnout.
We need every one to come along and show the world that we want an alternative to the dull and bloated OS that has afflicted the masses in the computing world.
Sick and tired of all the doom and gloom in the Amiga market?
In short we want a new Amiga, and just because an Amiga Magazine shuts down, it doesn't mean that the existing Amiga dealers have suddenly ceased to exist or have gone elsewhere.
So turn up to WOA Southeast and support Amiga, Fore-Matt Home Computing, Weird Science, Stellar Dreams, Elbox, Clubbed Magazine, Cloanto, Eyetech, 100%Amiga, VP, and many more by coming along on the day.
Many retailers need shows like WoA Southeast to keep their commitment and businesses going until the next generation Amiga takes off.
Let's make the doom mongers eat a big shitcake, turn up and do us proud!
For more details on advance ticket ordering, full list of exhibitors, discussion forums and how to get there please visit http://www.worldofamiga.com

Zeoneo website launched
The Zeoneo website is now online
with details of its two new releases for AmigaDE: Convex and Planet
Zed.
Until now, Zeoneo was a company that relatively few people knew about.
Indeed, it may suprise many people to know that we have been working behind
the scenes for well over a year now. In that time, experience and understanding
of the systems that make up AmigaDE has been gained and used to develop our
first two PDA-targetted titles.
Convex is an addictive puzzle game where the objective of each of the 25
levels is to remove all the marbles.
Planet Zed is a vertical scroll shoot 'em up game that borrows many of its
features from the classic Bitmap Brothers game Xenon2.
Further information and screenshots of these products is available on the website.
