Hardware: Water cooling for Cyberstorm-PPC
A do-it-yourself project which might be of special interest for overclockers, since water is known to cool better than air does. This is said to run trouble-free up to know - at this time the author has in mind to utilize a peltier element together with the water cooling.

Even if one would not try this himself, it is vital to take a look at the picture of this reconstructed CSPPC on the page - somehow fascinating :-).

Elbox Computer is pleased to announce formulation of its new policy aimed at ensuring total compatibility of software written for Mediator PCI busboards by external developers with hardware and software designed and produced by Elbox.

Markus Schmidt (ANF)


Update of the ICQ user list
Due to other projects Markus Schmidt had less time to intensively care for the ICQ user list. Hence a lot of registrations retained of which the number of 26 now have been entered to the list. Six new post code sections were added by this. The number of 20 entries remaining will be entered to the list during the following days.

Markus Schmidt: "By this I ask anybody, who might already have been missing his/her entry, to apologize and for a little understanding! The list is being maintained by me only and by hand, which sometimes leads to a longer delay before the next update. In the future I'll try to prevent longer queue times."

H&P website with new layout
H&P writes:
From today on the new newssite is online. After some experiments with colours and the formation of the head-, bottom- and news area the current layout has been created. As the dominating colour you will find a dark red with white characters - based on the traditional Amiga-colours. On the right border the information column has been placed again. There are messages which besides the current news in the middle will have a staying importance. Up to now only the newssite has been renewed but the rest will follow little by little.

The startpage of our Internet performance www.haage-partner.de or www.haage-partner.com has been also refreshed thus you can access on the current topics in a better way.

Event: No more Amiga-shows in St. Louis
Since 1994 Bob and Diana Scharp have organized a great Amigashow in St. Louis and have spent much of their spare time for it. Now they decided to adopt a child which of course will have supreme priority and which lead to the decision of organizing no more shows. Now please read the complete article:

P.O. Box 672
Bridgeton, MO 63044
http://www.amiga-stl.com
bscharp@icon-stl.net

Fellow Amigans,

Over the years, Amigan-St. Louis, (Bob & Diana Scharp), have brought you many years of Amiga fun and edification. Namely the Amiga shows we hosted in St. Louis, MO. U.S.A. Since early 1994, we have been involved with providing the Amiga community with some of the best Amiga shows ever put on. Eventually we formed our own company, Amigan-St. Louis, to run these shows as they got too big to handle with just volunteers.

We have had many famous people and groups attend, exhibit, and showcase their products at our events. Some notable guests include a few Astronauts - Steve Nagel and Linda Godwin, a singing and dancing group - ANNEX, some celebrities - all of the various Amiga owners, presidents, staff. Notables such as Petro Tyschtschenko, Mitch Stone of Boycott Micro$oft, radio host Jim Singler, plus too many famous Amigans to mention.

We have not only hosted shows, but held banquets that have become famous by themselves. Who would ever forget the reintroduction of Amiga with Gateway, or even better with Bill McEwen. Then there was the ROAST of Petro Tyschtschenko. We celebrated Petro's many years of service to the Amiga community and his retirement the day of the banquet at our show Amiga2001. That will live in our hearts for many years.

Unfortunately, we cannot continue the shows for now. There will be no Amiga 2002© show, sponsored by us. The good news, is the reason why.

Diana and I are adopting a child. Our lives will be even busier than usual this year and next, so we will have to pass the torch, at least for awhile, to others. Although we are not ruling out the possibility of a future show sponsored by us, we just can't possibly do any for now.

We hope you will understand. We hope you will keep the Amiga in your hearts. Hey, we hope to see some of you at other shows and events. Maybe we will be able to bring our newest Amigan with us.

So for now, we bid farewell to the show side of our business, but please consider purchasing some of our latest products from our company.

"Petro ROAST tape"*.................... only $ 15 + $ 5 s&h
"Amiga Antenna balls".................. only $ 3 + $ 1 s&h
"Amiga Coffee Mug (no.2)............... only $ 12 + $ 5 s&h
"Other Bounce-back video tapes......... see web site

* Petro ROAST tape will be available in a few weeks. For other products, see our web page.

Mail your orders to:

Amigan-St. Louis
PO Box 672
Bridgeton, MO 63044

Please make checks payable to Amigan-St. Louis, in U.S. funds. Postal Money orders are also accepted. No credit cards or pay pal.

You can also visit our web site for details, at: http://www.amiga-stl.com

As a final note on Amiga shows in the U.S., I understand that Kermit Woodall of Nova Design is putting one together for the east coast. It is supposed to be held the last weekend of March 2002. For information, keep an eye on amiga.org and other news sites.

It has been a great pleasure working with many of you, and showcasing the Amiga and it's capabilities. I wish all of you great success, and we hope to see you all again.

Best Regards,

Bob & Diana Scharp (ps) (Translation: dr)

Tool: Identify-Update with AmigaXL-Support
The Identify-package is now available in version 13.0. New is the AmigaXL support. The library does not only convert Guru- and Zorroboard IDs into a readable format, it also displays several data about the used system. Added tools like ListExp are very useful to create bugreports. Identify can be used by Assembler, C, Basic, Pascal, E, and ARexx and from the Installer. (ps) (Translation: gf)
