AAA Award Canceled For The Time Being
Since 1997 the AAA Awards were given to people out of the Amiga area, among other things for their hard- and software products. Among the award winners have been Holger Kruse, Dave Haynie, Marcel Beck, Kermit Woodall, Stefan Burstroem and SoftLogik. Now the awarding of this price will be canceled for the time being. The reasons for this are too little manpower and too low support. In the future the award may be granted again. This depends among other things on the community and Amiga. Everybody who wants to comment on this may write to f98-msa@f.kth.se. more ...

AmigaOS 3.9 Wallpapers (Background Images)
Hello Amigans, as there's the huge amount of 4 new background images on the AmigaOS 3.9 CD since AmigaOS3.5 I have decided to do some myself. The first archive is already available on Aminet under pix/back/os39wallp.lha (1024x800 24Bit). A 800x600 version was just transferred onto Aminet. The 800x600 version is named OS39w800.lha Both archives are freeware and I allow Haage&Partner to use these.

Nice Calculator for the AmigaOS
Who ever worried about the shop-soiled calculator of the AmigaOS can look forward, now! On my homepage one can download the initial version of CoolCALC. This one virtual offers the same functions as the original program, but can be embellished with skins (one is part of the archive) and can be iconified.
