Amiga-Community.net


Amiga-Community.net now with Customer Portal
Amiga-Community.net perhaps is the only customer portal for Amiga. You can give your opinion about products or websites for Amiga. One can enter anything dealing with Amiga, e.g. shareware - freeware - hardware - software - .....

You can also suggest new categories and products. Some products are already in, these just need to be rated, now. But there is no reimbursement as with similar services.

Heise: Corel Parts with Their Linux Branch
As it looks like Corel will do part with their Linux branch.

Heise wrote:
«Though Corel Corporation will publish their this year's strategy first on 23rd of January, analysers estimate that corel will part with their Linux branch. In reply on these notions in US reports Corel's share value rose at 7.5 % at the American technology stock exchange Nasdaq, last Monday. Already in December speculations came up about Corel might take this step. »

Picture Supplement regarding WoA 2000
Mirko Nauman has sent us a whole lot of pictures from the WoA2000. Unfortunately we cannot publish all of these, cause 34 MB are simply way too much. We selected the nicest pictures and made a little catalog out of these which you can find here.

This is how the pictures were taken:

Mirko filmed on the show with his MiniDV video camera SONY DCR-TRV8E and then connected this camera via SVHS cable to his second Amiga with PicassoIV and PalomIV TV module. As his camera takes 25 frames per second he had to select and save the best pictures. Then he converted the pictures saved before to JPEG using the picture format converting software GfxCon by Dirk Farins.

Eternity News: MPG Video-card / USB for AMIGA
Eternity wrote:
We are looking for some developers for the realising of an MPEG-Video-card or a USB-card for the Amiga in co-operation with Kato Development:

Programmers that develop drivers and host programs, based on Linux-sources, for the Amiga. We consider the following suppositions:
  1. The intention to develop something 'New' for the Amiga.
  2. There has to be some time available.
  3. You have to know that you wont become a millionaire by developing for the Amiga.
  4. Will for co-operation.
  5. C and C++
  6. Know about the Amiga-hardware.

With the knowhow of Kato and some other persons we will try to develop one of the above mentioned products. We make no promises!

Additionally we are looking for distributors that would like to support the investment and will get better conditions.

And last but not least we would like to come in contact with other projects of this kind, cause if there are already projects like this running, we will renounce ours.

CES: Interview with Grant Courville, QNX
At CES, Christoph Dietz has interviewed Grant Courville from QNX (English translation by Martina Jacobs):

QNX, also one of more than 1,500 exhibitors on CES in Las Vegas, is still in mind of the Amiga community as a partner for the Amiga platform from the age of Jeff Schindler and later of Jim Collas. About that time, development after that - and regarding this most of all about porting to PPC boards by phase5 taken in consideration - I talked to Grant Courville.


QNX presents Neutrino

Neutrino not an a PC for once

Darrin Fry, manager Photon development, proudly prensents how the Amiga operating system would have looked like, if there wasn't any change of direction.


To Courville, former development manager and now manager of the "World Wide Sales Engineering", after the end of development together with Amiga, QNX benefits from many users' and developers' feedback QNX received. Those days QNX had placed "QNX on disk", their operating system with browser, TCP/IP stack and some demos, on one single 1,44 MB disk. Also the neutrino's multimedia capabilities made capital from the developments which - by the way - mainly were done by QNX. But also the marketing effect would have been very fortunate for the company's further assignment.

The splitting of the Amiga community into QNX and Linux supporters, which rose Jim Collas' decision, he regards to be the most negative effect imaginable. He will take a look at the AmigaSDK in any case, cause "perhaps there might be another future for QNX and Amiga". He thinks porting to QNX would not be a big problem.

As in July 1999 the porting of neutrino to the PowerUP boards by phase5 was announced (see our message) users started hoping, again. But there never was more to see than the press release. Unfortunately phase5 never delivered any PPC board to enable QNX to use the Amiga computer available. Contact to phase5 dropped away as time went by. Though there is the QNX operation system for PPC processors in the meantime, but just not for PPC equipped Amiga computers, cause there is no matching to the typically Amiga custom chips. Due to the minor number of existing boards chances for porting are to estimate as very low, said Courville finally.

After days of considering hither and thither I have decided to abandon the Amiga. That means that ATP will be released in its momentarily development state (version 0.9 beta) and also that I offer my Amiga for sale. More about this on the homepage.

ATP is a address book/organizer software.

Christoph Dietz


CES: Interview with TAO's CEO Francis Charig
As already reported, Christoph Dietz flew to Las Vegas for amiga-news.de to attend and report directly from the CES. Here's the interview he had with the CEO of TAO, the software partner of Amiga Inc.:


Francis Charig (Chairman TAO)

Francis Charig (Chairman TAO)
Patrice Haftmann (Chairman/CEO Infomedia)
J.D. Ray (Präsident/COO Infomedia)


Amiga-News: Good morning Francis and thank you for the opportunity of this interview.

Francis Charig: It's a pleasure for me either!

Amiga-News: Let's start with some basic questions. How old are you and where are you born?

Francis Charig: Unfortunately I'm 40 years old. I was born in Oxted by London.

Amiga-News: Sure you are married and have children?

Francis Charig: Yes, my wife is Japanese and we have two boys. One is six and the other will be three in February.

Amiga-News: When and where was TAO (pronounced: DAO) founded?

Francis Charig: TAO was founded in 1992 in Bracknell nearby Reading, England. Until 1995 it was a virtual company, located in a bedroom.

Amiga-News: How many people are working for TAO?

Francis Charig: About 70 people. More then 50 of them are in the software department. They are coming from three major groups: the Video games industry, the Blue Chip Industry and we selected the best directly from the universities, Stanford for example.

Amiga-News: What's your position at TAO?

Francis Charig: I'm the chairman of TAO. TAO is not a public company. Sony and Motorola together own 30% of TAO. If TAO would be a public company, its market value would be about $100.000.000. Nowadays Amiga Inc. is our most important partner.

Amiga-News: Do you remember your greatest success?

Francis Charig: Of course, it was to bring this exiting engineering team together. These people are incredible. We only had a fluctuation of two people in the last 2 1/2 years.

Amiga-News: What was the worst day in TAO's history?

Francis Charig: [Thinks long] it was to loose business with our investor from the blue chip industry in 1995 while we had no customers.

Amiga-News: When did you had "First contact" with Bill McEwen?

Francis Charig: It was in October 1999. We introduced him to investors after he decided to use our software for the new Amiga. In fact: TAO saved Amiga.

Amiga-News: Are you familiar with Amiga's history?

Francis Charig: Yes, I know about it all. I know about Commodore, Escom, VisCorp, Gateway and all these things. I still have my Amiga, but unfortunately it's standing in the attic. Also my nephew used the Amiga. I loved gaming on it, e.g. BrakeOut.

Amiga-News: Can you describe the new OS with only three words?

Francis Charig: Consumer Multimedia Stack

Amiga-News: When will the new Amiga-OS be ready, in Q3/2001?

Francis Charig: Of course not! Someone in the next half year!

Amiga-News: We are just a few days in the New Year. Do you have a wish for this year?

Francis Charig: *Joking* Retirement. No, I wish that TAO would be successful in all of the key markets.

Amiga-News: Is the existing Amiga community important for you?

Francis Charig: Yes. The Amiga community provides ones of the best engineers and artist. There is more multimedia skill in the Amiga community than in the PC-World. But there is a discussion if memory protection is needed or not. I want to explain TAO's point of view. For what is memory protection needed? To prevent bad programmed software from crashing the computer. That means that it leads into bad programming. But the software for AmigaDE will run on your desktop but also on your mobile or in your car. Mobiles for example don't have memory protection. Are they crashing? No, the software for them is well programmed. If we add memory protection we have to have a very, very good reason. Because it slows down the operating system. Our goal is to deliver the best multimedia-operating stack. This also means speed!

Amiga-News: Some words to the community?

Francis Charig: We can make Amiga great together. To be great we have to lead the world. Amiga is delivering the best content to the mass market. If we always remember that, we can achieve.

Amiga-News: Thank you for this interview and have a successful stay at the CES.

Francis Charig: It was a pleasure to me. Thank you!

Heise: CES: The Computer Sector Deals in Entertainment Electronics
«On Saturday at 19 o'clock MET the Consumer Electronic Show (CES), the world's biggest annual entertainment electronics fair is opening its doors in Las Vegas. One and a half hour before, Bill Gates will hold his keynote, which he will - as known by now - change on the birth hour of his new favourite, the game console XBox.

Though this will be no more surprise to anybody, but there are a lot more things to discover at the CES: After all there are 1800 exhibitors at the start this year and in addition to this there is a "frame program" at the fair with over 100 presentations with about 300 experts. 110.000 visitors are expected from over 100 countries. The fair was first held back 1967 with some modest 200 exhibitors and 17.500 visitors.»

Christoph Dietz of amiga-news.de has flown to Las Vegas to report to our readers from the fair and to cover us with pictures. In addition he has arranged for some interesting interviews. You can expect interesting news.

«Nearly every Amiga-site has a forum, so why create one more? All of the forums that are working at our place currently are based on very simple technology can can hardly be expanded. The new forum is based on the Yet Another Bulletin Board' in short 'YaBB' and is offering every imaginable comfort. The forum will now be tested for some weeks and later on we will decide whether we stick to the system or remove it. The design is only partly adapted to out page. It will change during testing. To participate you need to register during which you can choose an appearance for yourself. If you wish so, your data will be stored in Cookies, so you will register automatically on your next visit. The new forum is really fun. We would be happy to find as many participants as possible. We will the create more special forums on request.»

MooBunny Forum


Corinna Cohn. Interviewed Bill McEwen
Corinna Cohn. called up Bill McEwen, to clear up some rumors as much as possible. McEwen answered her some questions. Here a summary of what Bill McEwen answered:
  • AmigaOS 3.9 has upgraded Internet functionality that was missing from 3.5, and it has multimedia players. Otherwise, most of the functionality is similar to 3.5. Users will have to evaluate the features of 3.9 for themselves to see if there's any value added.
  • The last months were tight for Amiga Inc. from a financial point of view. They are looking for more investors. McEwen named several sources, among them a tier one company that would be interested in investing.
  • Bill McEwen is sure to have a product that hopefully impresses investors more than some of the ephemeral properties that other startups failed to sell.
  • Money is low. Will Amiga Inc. become insolvent? McEwen replied to this question that this is not true.
  • Amiga Inc. will only exhibit at Amiga trade shows. Products will be made available through vendors.
  • Bill McEwen named some manufacturers of set-top boxes which should be available soon. He is excited about other products appearing, especially something that should please Amiga users.
  • He reiterated that they (this being vendors using Amiga technology) had some products ready to debut and that we should stick around to see them.
Corinna Cohn. analyzes Bill McEwens statements as follows:
"Amiga does not have a product that I as an Amiga user would necessarily want, but that I as a computer geek might dig. We Amiga users are a technological launching platform for a new, possibly cool technology, and Amiga wants us to continue to pay attention to them until its ready. This explains 3.5 and 3.9, and it explains the early appearance of the developers kit. Amiga is going to continue to blow us kisses until they have something to impress us with or until they run out of money."

The computer industry is in an extremely hard competition. Even if it may be difficult for us at times not to lose our faith that Amiga Inc. will achieve what they have planned. It is worth acknowledging that they are obviously not willed to throw in the towel even though it would be easier and more promising to develop tools for another famous OS ...

Music: Psyria
Dennis Lohr 'Psyria' has been making music as a hobby for six years. he started with an A500 and Protracker 2.3a. Currently, he still creates his music mainly on the Amiga, but he uses the Digibooster today. He expresses his enthusiasm about the Digibooster like this: "For all Amigans who make music as well: have a look at that thing! There probably is no better tracker for the Amiga!"

Many of his songs (trance, techno, dancefloor, and pop) are available for download on his website at the title link. The website was entirely reworked lately.

VirusHelp Denmark: Update of xvs.library
Yesterday, an update to the xvs.library was released which can recognize the trojans "4kIntro Trojan" and Dkg-Blum Trojan. If you're using VirusChecker, VirusExecutor or VirusZ, make sure to update the library.
Some information on the release:

Name...: xvs.library v33.24
Archive name: xvslibrary.lha
Archiv size: 52.734 Bytes
Date: January 4th, 2001
Programmer: Alex van Niel

News for 33.24:
- 4kIntro Trojan added
Thanks to Ryben Kozlak and Jan Andersen
- Dkg-Blum Trojan added
Thanks to Peter Gordon, Urban Müller and Jan Andersen

NOTE:
This trojan also replaces/deletes or adds a file called asi.library XVS will not (yet) be able to detect this file because as far as I could analyze it, it looked like a normal VideoTracker file. If XVS would have to see this as a virus, more VideoTracker files will be fake detected. If you have problems or want this added anyway let me know.

STILL TO DO: - Add Neurotic Death 2 and Neurotic Death 4. These two linkviruses are polymorphic, but crash on my system if I try to infect some test files. It seems that they haven't been spread to the public, I received them anonymously from the author. So it's not that BIG danger at the moment. - Try to get and add GlobVec linkvirus. The only one who has it is Heiner Schneegold (author of VT-Schutz) and VTC Hamburg, but Heiner doesn't give his permission to the VTC to send me the virus :(

3PMGUI Update
3PMGUI gives the MP2 CLI player MPEGA a small GUI with the features needed most. Since MPEGA as well as the GUI causes only low CPU load, 3PMGUI most of all suits very well for Amiga users with slow machines.

New Features:
  • drag'n'drop (just drag a MP2/3 file on the GUI to play it)
  • Autoplay
  • Button graphics can be exchanged / loaded via menu (some 'skins' are already included)
  • Other small enhancements

Cult Magazines
Because PC-Joker will be delivered for the last time I want to give you the hint that at kultpower.de the PowerPlay-archives was expanded very much. Current state: 281 test results, 113 complete test reports as scans, 35 scanned advertising for games, 57 PowerPlay-covers. You can search through the database of PowerPlay very comfortably. Besides this you can admire 53 ASM-covers from the current software-market.

So you are right at kultpower.de if you want to indulge in memories and to read test reports of cult games like Turrican, Monkey Island, Battle Isle or Lemmings.
