fxSCAN SE No Longer Part of ScanQuix 5
RBM decided some time ago not to purchase serial numbers for fxSCAN SE versions from us, any longer. As a result of this the at this time delivered and long before produced ScanQuix CDs admittedly come with fxSCAN SE, but without a serial number cause RBM no longer owns a license for these. Due to this we beg you to refrain from asking us for free serial numbers, cause these were not payed by RBM and will not be deliverd by us afterwards. Because of that fxSCAN from now only can be purchased as a full version. Please, refrain from using serial numbers from other people, cause this would be unlawful.

New Version of InstallerNG
On the "Official InstallerNG Site" there is a new version for the well known Installer replacement, the InstallerNG, available for free download. A number of small bugs were fixed, and a new function was added. Attention: the support for MEDIA functions basing on datatype still is under development and therefore might be buggy. Furthermore the example scripts were worked over, and the manual was adapted.

Metabox Share Free Falling
Metabox, once stock jobber' favourite in the new market, were not able to fulfill their volume announced early this year. One was talking about orders amounting to millions, that time - in fact just declarations of intent by anonymous, but bulk purchasers from foreign countries. After that the Metabox share shot up, and was the favourite of every risk loving investor, all summer.
Since several days share is in the red continuous, and today for some time went below -50% after the company from Hildesheim, Germany, released a profit caution. The initial volume forecast of 198 Mio. DM was audited to 70 Mio. DM. At this time the share is at a price of 7,- EUR. Top price was converted into euros (due to share split) 45,80EUR in July. Metabox beside internet boxes for TV-sets also produces G3 boards for the Mac, and had announced an Amiga version of these boards, the "AmiJoe". If AmiJoe ever will be released is doubtful, now.

Amiga NG - Microsoft is Planning this for Years.
Microsoft, Redmond, USA.
Microsoft is developing a technic called IL (Intermediate Language) for years. The underlying concepts are amazing similar to the AmigaNG! There is no JustInTime compiler but the IL-modules were preloaded and compiled into native code at runtime (with corresponding hardwareoptimizations). All is integrated in Windows and will be released with VisualStudio 7.0 and C# in 2001 or 2002. This is another way for MS to other hardwaresystems like mobile phones or handhelds. Even games will be available for different hardwaresystems by using IL and a core-kernel. more ...

Editor's Thoughts and Introduction:

 There's a stong dichotomy in this issue's stories. There are a number
of items showing a clear move forward on Amiga's part into the future
with its new generation of software and hardware standards. There's an
equally clear picture presented by other stories of the Classic Amiga
market shutting down.
 We don't think there will be any problem with those of us dependent
on classic machines surviving until there are new computers with new
software to move to, so there's no reason for panic. There is,
however, every reason to see the transition as real and happening now.
 It's about time, but we can't deny it's always a bit frightening to
move into a new existence and see the door to the old closing behind
you. Keep in mind it's an entire community making the transition, and
we're all in it together. You will also find in this issue many
stories showing just how strong our Amiga community remains.

Brad,

 I was glad to see that some users out there still have the A2000 and
A3000! Mine are not in operating mode at present. No fault of mine. An
expensive tradesman repair gone sour. But perhaps there is hope. I
loved those Amigas! I thought these old favorites would be left in the
dust of the 1200, and the new products I saw displayed by Bill McEwen
on The Screensavers TV show on ZDTV! Quite an impressive introduction
to the new Amiga.

Lee
~~~~~~
Lee,
 Hang on, things are just starting to roll out for the new Amiga. As
noted in my comments above, you can really see the transition from the
old Amiga to the new taking place right now. At the moment, though,
the A2000s, A3000s and beyond are still working very well for many
Amigans, including me.

 Thank you for the continued newsletters. I'm still an active Amiga
user and any Amiga news is greatly appreciated. My "other computer" is
a MacIntosh and news/tips having to do with Mac/Amiga interaction
would be of interest. (File exchanges via Consultron's CrossMAC
program allows some things on a Mac and Amiga to work very well with
each other).

 Has anyone used Castlewood's Orb drive on an Amiga? I hadn't found
any information regarding that yet and was wondering if their
headerless approach presents special problems for developing an Amiga
driver, or what special considerations might exist for implementing an
Orb drive on a SCSI-equipped Amiga (like my A3000UXD).

 My experience with the Orb drive on a MacIntosh system is positive so
far. It seems to work equally well on the Mac's standard SCSI or from
an Ultra SCSI card. The price of the drive and the media are certainly
reasonable enough to make it an attractive option for Amiga owners if
it could be made to work on one.

 Thanks for any information you may have.

-- Dave --

Dave,
 As I do with any topic I'm not fully familiar with, let me throw this
one out to the readership. Can anyone help Dave?

 I have an A4000/060 with an internal CD-ROM drive and an A500/030 and an
external ZIP drive (now, also a 2Gb Jaz drive).
I just copied the OS 3.5 data onto a ZIP disk, moved the drive over
to my A500 and installed from there.

Gary
~~~~~~
Gary,
 Thanks for the suggestion. We hope this information can help some of
those at least who've asked us about installing OS 3.5 on systems
without CD/ROM drives. It'll require finding someone else with an
Amiga, a CD/ROM drive and a Zip or similar, but looks like it can be
done fairly easily.

Snoqualmie, WA - Reno, NV-September 20, 2000 - Business Wire - Targeting the

Snoqualmie, WA. Aug 30, 2000

 Amiga Inc. and Hyperion Entertainment are pleased to announce a
long-term alliance to bring Hyperion's impressive list of award
winning games to the Amiverse.

 Hyperion's games are a testament to the high standard set by the
Amiga community. Much like the New Amiga, Hyperion has raised the bar
to a higher level. We are proud to include Hyperion in our future. We
are equally pleased to see such a steady stream of notable developers
validating our platform.'' Said Randy Hughes, Vice President Sales and
Strategic Alliances at Amiga Inc.

 The initial list of titles being developed for the Amiverse include:

 Heretic II: Already released for Classic Amiga PPC, Heretic II is a
gothic-style first-person shooter.

 Sin: A super realistic ego shooter in a not-too-distant future with
an intriguing plot to solve and many levels to "clean-up". Sin is due
in Q3 2000.

 Shogo: Fight with your Mobile Armor Division Mech through futuristic
cities and natural sites. Face a civil war in Mech mode or Soldier
mode in this award winning ego shooter, written with the famous
LithTech 3D Engine by Monolith. Shogo is also slated for Q3 2000.

 Freespace: Development has already begun and is to be completed in Q4
2000. Freespace offers many space flights combats and mission for this
space opera among stars and nebulas. A great simulation for a great
story of space war.

 Alien Nations: Development is just under way. In the style of Age of
Empires II, Alien Nations will allow you to lead your people to
survive attacks from your enemies. Live long and prosper in the levels
of this great Real Time Strategy game.

 Soldier of Fortune: The highly acclaimed ego shooter of the year will
come to the Amiga. Designed with the help of SEAL people, SOF is one
of the most realistic ego shooter. Experience fights against
terrorists and criminals, train to be better and always remember to
shoot first.

 "Hyperion will announce new games in the near future, as we negotiate
deals with new licensors including some of the industry's biggest
names. We want to bring the Amiga the hottest and most recent games,
as it was the case in the great Amiga gaming times. With the arrival
of new hardware such as faster graphics cards, the Amiga will enjoy a
new level of performance allowing the Amiga to keep up with bigger and
better games. Keep your Amiga updated, stay tuned and roll on the
Amiga One!" said Ben Yoris, PR Manager of Hyperion.

About Hyperion

 Hyperion Entertainment is a privately held Belgian company founded in
April of 1999. Hyperion aims to bring top-class entertainment software
to leading alternative platforms including Amiga. Hyperion
Entertainment has license agreements with many of the top names in the
industry including Interplay, Activision and Monolith with more deals
to be made public soon.

 Whilst Hyperion's primary expertise is in the field of 3D engines
(LithTech, Quake 2), the company has recently been working with its
publisher Titan (www.titan-computer.com) on expanding its line-up with
strategy and RTS games as well as RPG's and simulators. The results of
these efforts will be announced over the course of the next few
months. Hyperion Entertainment is also investigating the possibility
of applying its expertise in the field of 3D graphics to
non-entertainment related areas. For additional information, please
see www.hyperion-software.com .

     C O N C E R N   O V E R   P E T R O   B U S I N E S S

 A recent posting on the Amiga-news.de website created a mini-uproar
in the Amiga community. The posting stated that Petro Tyschtschenko,
long time bastion of the Amiga community and head of Amiga
Deutschland, had founded a new company in partnership with a Frank
Basta. The company, called Power Service BmbH, appears to be a
supplier of tempory workers for software firms.
 A response  from Petro posted on the Czech Amiga News site indicated
no intent to leave the Amiga community or Amiga itself behind:

"Sorry but I have no plans to quit. I have only invested 50 % in Power
Service, which is a company I believe in. It is no Computer Company and no
competition... Power Service is a Job agency for IT Specialists. I will
continue with my beloved AMIGA. Best regards and thanks for your
mail...Petro"

 Several web sites carried the following quote from Amiga Inc's CEO
Bill McEwen at the time the original announcement was made:

 "I would be shocked and personally hurt to find out that Petro has
not been making Amiga his first priority, and that he has been using
his Amiga paid trips to India for his own personal gain. We pay him a
wonderful salary, we pay for his Mercedes, his cell phone, and his
beautiful offices. He has never spoken to me about any issues or
problems, and if he has truly been using our money and time to promote
his own company I will be extremely disappointed. I hope that
Amiga-News is wrong in their findings."

Amiga Fans everywhere,

 Amigan-St. Louis is proud to announce that the next Gateway Computer
Show... Amiga2001, will be held on March 30, 31 and April 1, 2001.

 This exciting event, Amiga2001 - An Amiga Odyssey, will be our best
yet. Due to the demise of the Henry VIII hotel, it's being torn down,
we had to move our venue to a new location.

 The good news is that this place has lots to offer. The show will be
hosted at the Sheraton Westport Plaza. This Sheraton has the same old
world charm that the Henry VIII did, but offers much more. It has
parking for over 3,000 cars. It's location, at West Port Plaza is
really terrific, as that puts it in the middle of entertainment,
restaurants, pubs, shopping, eateries, movie theaters, live theater, a
jazz club and much more. Under cover parking is available too.

 We'll be posting something on our web site by the end of September,
so keep an eye out. In the mean time, get your vacations lined up for
March 30 - April 1. Perhaps you'd like to come early or stay longer
and arrange a little fun in St. Louis. This is an exciting town, and
your family would be certain to enjoy it if you bring them.

H&P increases personnel

 In October of the past year, we already hired a new programmer,
namely Markus Poellmann. He mainly cares for StormC, and also works on
AmigaWriter. At the beginning of 2000, a new co-worker was found, Ute
Gottschalk, who takes care of accounting and datatyping. Stefan Robl
has just finished a practical period for his computer studies, in
which he created a new and portable version of StormRexx. At the
beginning of September, Alexander Bramm and Simon Neumann brought two
new co-workers. Their main concern is support, and managing of new
projects.

06 September 2000

Further co-workers wanted

 For proof-reading of our website texts, press releases and manuals we
are looking for an additional English native speaker. A good knowledge
of English grammar etc. is essential. Surprisingly we already got
about 18 applications, but we only need one or two people to help on
this. Thank you very much.

Elbox Computer
Krakow, 21 Sep 2000

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

 We, Elbox Computer company, the company involved with microcomputer
technology for over 18 years, the company with the principles of
reliability, honesty and care for our clients, feel obliged to release
this announcement to protect interests of Amiga users.

 For several weeks now, the Eyetech company has been involved in a
propaganda action against our breakthrough product for Amiga
computers: the MEDIATOR PCI. Eyetech publish and disseminate untrue
views on MEDIATOR, the exceptional busboard, and compare this high-end
product with their announced device.

 It is not our way to comment on others' activities, yet under the
current circumstances we feel obliged to explain this situation and
Eyetech's accusations to Amiga users and to comment on the idea
indicated by Eyetech (or any other company behind the Eyetech
nametag).

BLIZZARD PPC LOCAL BUS LIMITATIONS:

 Eyetech announced releasing a product they called competitive to our
MEDIATOR high-end card. Technical specification of this product has
been announced in such a way that Amiga users would have to misread
it.

 The idea of connecting a PCI/AGP busboard directly to Blizzard PPC
cards gives worse performance than MEDIATOR because:

1. This solution is only for owners of Blizzard PPC accelerators.
   You have to stick with your Blizzard PPC 603e for ever.
   No change, no open structure, no versatility.

2. Practical average data transfers over the busboard connected
   directly to Blizzard PPC cards will not be higher than achieved
   with MEDIATOR - due to technical limitations of Blizzard PPC
   cards.

3. Connection of a busboard to the connector used for inserting
   a BVision card renders further use of the BVision card
   impossible.


MEDIATOR OPEN SOLUTION:

 The MEDIATOR high-end busboard is the best solution for Amiga
computers to offer high-speed support for PCI cards.

 The MEDIATOR busboard is a well-thought product, with long-standing
history of design development and a vision for its lasting evolution,
to give Amiga users power they have not had so far.

 Our basic idea is that MEDIATOR is an OPEN solution, capable of
hosting ANY turbo cards from the Amiga market. MEDIATOR is not reduced
to a Blizzard PPC-bound concept. MEDIATOR gives you the possibility to
have any turbo card you want.

 MEDIATOR has been designed specifically for all the available cards
and each and every turbo card works with MEDIATOR at the maximum speed
available for the given card.

 MEDIATOR PCI may offer transfer of data from/to any Amiga turbo card
at the maximum speed of up to 132 MB/s. The only practical limitation
lies in the design of the specific turbo card.

 MEDIATOR is expandable, even more: it is ready for any new Amiga
cards that will be available in the future - this gives you freedom
that you have never had before.

 You can use MEDIATOR with any turbo cards: Blizzard 1230, Blizzard
1240, Blizzard 1260, Blizzard PPC, Apollo 1230, Apollo 1240, Apollo
1260, Elbox 1230, MTec 1230, etc. and with any future concepts like
Amijoe and more...

MEDIATOR ADVANTAGES:

 MEDIATOR has been designed optimised for any turbo card type, so that
the maximum possible performance is obtained in the given hardware
configuration.

 MEDIATOR automatically recognises the turbo card type and executes
the best procedures to guarantee the highest performance possible in
this configuration. This is an unrivalled feature.

 This approach is much more time- and effort- and money-consuming than
the concept of supporting Blizzard PPC cards only.

 Besides, the idea of connecting a PCI/AGP busboard directly to
Blizzard PPC cards does not give you, the Amiga user, any additional
speed gains when compared with MEDIATOR - you will only feel that
Eyetech's design is simpler and possibly definitely cheaper.

 We feel very sorry that Eyetech in this context is apparently
discrediting MEDIATOR's performance while being well aware of their
fallacy.

ABOUT ELBOX:

We have been developing and producing electronic equipment since 1982.
Our superb Amiga designs include:
* E-BOX tower systems and ZORRO busboards for A1200 and A4000
 (also known as Power Tower in the UK and Winner Tower in Germany);

11.9.2000 Innovative announces future plans

 Innovative, known as the developers of popular AMIGA®-titles such as
fxPAINT, fxSCAN, VHI Studio and Ultraconv today announced the future
plans of the enterprise.

 fxSCAN 3.0 with intelligent OCR-engine (OCR = Optical Character
Recognition) fxSCAN will soon be available in version 3.0. It will
be a major update including the following new features:

  · intelligent OCR-engine
  · Support for free BetaScan-drivers
  · comfortable Copymachine-function
  · reworked user-interface
  · JPEG-files are now loaded via PPC
  · many small improvements

 The price for V3.0 will be at 69.- DM/35 EURO/35 US$. An update from
V1.0/V2.0 will cost 59.- DM/30 EUROR/30 US$. We won't offer updates
from V1.0 SE (ScanQuix-special edition). fxSCAN 3.0 can already be
ordered from Innovative's online-shop (http://www.innovative-web.de/)
and will be delivered as soon as the final product becomes available.
A completly new fxSCAN-website will be online at the time the new
version is introduced.


The present

 Innovative regards the AMIGA®-market as too small to further exist
only from revenues of this market. The enterprise doesn't see any
tendencies towards improvement, as key-enterprises have either left
the AMIGA®-market or went out of bussiness and important hardware-
products are only available as long as they are still in stock.
Faster, more up-to-date or completly new hardware doesn't seem to be
within reach and major improvements of the current Classic-AmigaOS®
are not to be expected in near future. The AMIGA® SDK is a highlight,
but it is not a garantor for the future existance and maintenance of
the new AMIGA®-Operating-/Computersystems.

The current situation forces Innovative to look for new markets and
to no more _exclusivly_ work in the AMIGA®-market.


The future

 After the availability of fxSCAN V3.0, Innovative will intensify work
on a new technology (details are not available due to reasons of
protecting Innovative's intellectual property). Programs developed
with the aid of this new technology (Codename "InNT") will be more
comfortable to use and will have an even more spectacular optic.
Furthermore programs developed with it will be highly portable to
other platforms and CPUs. Indeed porting an application is expected to
take only a few days, cutting down both the amount of development-time
and -money that has to be spent for that task. As soon as the first
version of this new technology is finished we will start porting
already known Innovative-titles to the new technology and a variety of
different platforms. Besides the AMIGA®-market, the Windows®- and
Linux®-market will be target of the developments of the company. It's
also planned to hand out licences for this new technology, but this
still has to be decided. The result of the decision will be announced
in a later, seperate press release.


The AMIGA®-conversions

 We regret to say that our new technology will most probably not be
able to run on 68K-PPC-Dual-CPU-Systems as it is currently used in
some AMIGA®s, as a seperation of the GUI and the program will be hard
to perform and a 68060 definatly seems to be too slow for fluid and
comfortable work. Once the development of the first version of the new
technology is finished, Innovative will evaluate the possibilities of
a portation to MorphOS and APUS Linux and is currently planning a
portation to these platforms. The Tao® Elate®-based new AmigaOS® will
be supported by Innovative as far as it is available. This way,
AMIGA®-users will be able to continue enjoying the high-quality and
highly innovative software by Innovative.


The current products

 It can't be denied that future plans are in conflict with the further
development of the current product-line for AMIGA®-computers.
Nevertheless the currently existing products will be developed further
and updates will be available at a regular basis though not as often
as in the past. As soon as the versions developed with the new
technology are available, users get an update-offer. So everybody
buying an Innovative-product today, buys a product that will be
developed further in future and that he will be able to use even after
switching to other OSes like Windows®, Linux® or "Amiga® NG" as well.


The webservices

 We will stop offering webservices, as the amount of time and money
spent can in no way be justified with the resulting revenues. Existing
contracts will continue to exist for a yet undefined time whereas we
won't do any new contracts. Of course we will continue to offer
special solutions for companies in the future and we'll also keep
updating the "Amiga Link Directory".

 Epic Marketing Germany waves goodbye after 4 years on the Amiga
market, our company is set to close on septembre 30. But this is no
reason for despair. After October 1 there will not be one but two new
Epic companies in the market.

 Epic Interacticve Entertainment software will primarily focus on the
development and distribution of top notch games for the Apple
Macintosh market. The Amiga One and the Atari Milan computers will be
supported once they see the light of day.

 Epic Multimedia will enter the market in October too. You will find
information on their products, which will include games, infotainment
and edutainment for various computer systems (Apple Mac, Windows,
Linux, Amiga One, Milan) on our webpage from mid octobre.

 For the Classic Amiga Epic Interactive will develop and distribute
the titles "Simon The Sorcerer 2", "Earth 2140" and Dafel: Bloodline".

 Whether they continue to support the platform in the future is
heavily dependant on the success of these titles. "Earth 2140" can now
be preordered for DM 89.95 until October 15th. After that it will cost
99.95.

22.9.2k Asimware discontinues Amiga Support

 Len Carsner: "After recently purchasing MasterISO 2.6, I emailed
Asimware with a question concerning a problem I was having. I received
a form letter which stated "Effective September 6th, 2000 all
production, development, and support for Amiga products is
discontinued. Sales of MasterISO will still be available through
Software Hut. Our Amiga products will NOT be released to the public
domain. Thank You for eight great years." At the end was a statement
promoting their PC software."

From The Eyetech Group Ltd

 The Predator: 3xPCI + 1xAGP + SDRAM expansion with direct PPC
processor interface for the A4000 desktop and towered A1200

 As part of our ongoing discussions with top end games developers, one
of their major concerns is how to get sufficiently fast graphics cards
on the installed base of A1200 / A4000 PPC machines. The Permedia 2
chipset, although still the best graphics solution currently available
on the A1200, is now quite dated in its 3-D performance. The Elbox
Mediator is a partial solution, but is severely hampered because all
A1200 accelerators - including the Blizzard PPC - only bring 24
address lines out to the edge connector meaning that all data transfer
has to be carried out within the 8MB Zorro2 address window. For modern
graphics cards this will inevitably involve 4 fold or greater
multiplexing thus crippling the transfer rate between processor and
graphics card. In addition, PCI graphics cards themselves are now
increasingly hard to obtain and will be obsolete in a few months time.

 So what are we doing about it?

 The Predator expansion bus will come in separate versions for the
A1200 and A4000 desktop (an A4000 tower version will be produced later
if there is sufficient demand). Each will come equipped with 3xPCI
slots and 1xAGP (graphics card) slot (with an additional regular A4000
video slot in the A4000 version). In addition there will be a single
SDRAM (PC100 DIMM) socket for up to 256MB. As the bus is fully PCI 2.1
compliant, including bus mastering and DMA facilities, this SDRAM can
be used directly by either or both of the PPC CPU and the AGP graphics
card.

 By directly connecting to the expansion connector on the BlizzardPPC
and CyberstormPPC the expansion bus has the full 4GB of address space
of the PPC CPU without the penalties of any existing Zorro 2 conflicts
or address space multiplexing. The bus itself runs at 66MHz x 4 bytes
wide for unprecedented transfer rates (for a classic Amiga) both
between cards (using bus mastering and DMA) and - more importantly -
between the AGP connector and the PPC CPU.

 The board has been designed as a full multilayer PCB with 2 ground
planes and signal path length equalisation. Work on porting the
Voodoo-5 3D drivers (to be shipped with the board) is already
underway. And the best news of all is that this state-of-the-art
expansion bus will be available ub late September / early October at a
target price of just £169.95 including VAT.
