when or even if it will happen."
Everyone who wants to help the new programmer with the development can write to

NARR Site Reworked
Today the NARR site has been reworked graphically and several links
have been put to categories, so that hopefully it becomes more easy to
find the GFX lists, programs, reviews, etc.
There also is a gallery with some of my cartoons now, created with
Amiga drawing programs like PPaint or DPaintIV. Also the AGA demo
'Ayrton' by HITMAN is to find in the projects section, for which
I contriuted the music.
Furthermore I advice my anims section for those who like witty cartoon animations.

Heise: Microsoft Fires Contra Open Source
«How does the evil come to earth? With Open Source, if one wants to
believe Microsoft's chief for Windows, Jim Allchin. Open Source could
smother each and every innovation; it "destroys intellectual property",
said Allchin, and politicians would have to recognize this danger.
Open source would be the death of any inducement to invest in research and
development. Allchin "cannot imagine anything more worse for the software
business". Withal he equates open source like the free operating system
Linux with music exchange services á la Napster - an argument which immediately has
been intensely offended by the open source community.»
Complete article under the title link (German).
Does somebody suggest business competition facing him? Supposedly yes.
I wonder what you think about that. Personally I see great chances in open source to
realize great projects. The Internet is best evidence for that and Linux meantime
has got a huge community of rooters.

New HTMLread Version
A new HTMLread version (V1.00) is available for download at the support site
(titlelink).
HTMLread is an extension for YAM. YAM is a marvellous mailer, but it's not
able to display e-mails that have been written in HTML code as they are sent
by Netscape, Eudora or Outlook. HTMLread discovers, converts and sends these
e-mails to an HTML viewer.
Some changes have been made in the new version:
Installer, better support of status gifs, better <base> tag
handling with web graphics, nowebbug fixed, picturename bug fixed,
no picture bug fixed, better multi window support, only one HTML mail is
stored in t:, multiple ARexxPort support (AWeb), the binary is now compiled
with the stormamiga.library (smaller, faster, more secure). HTMLread has
now internal support against e-mail espionage (please read on that topic
»Espionage through HTML-E-Mails« in the documentation).

On Peter's Amiga Homepage
a new printer driver for the HP Deskjet 870c (version 40.12) is
available for download. This new version now also supports 68040 processors
and the HP Prefs. Download:
HP_Deskjet870C.lha
Payback by Apex Designs is
ready on CD-Rom and thus suppliable. You can draw the game either from Apex Design's
online shop directly or from the vendor of your choice.
In this game the player takes the role of a young driver on the run and in this
tries to become a big gangster's boss. The game is completely non-linear. To finish a
level the player simply has to collect a certain number of points. It is up to the player
how to reach this. There also is a FAQ
available for the game.

There were no news about the ´KOSH [Kommunity Orientated Software Hardware]´ organisation
founded by Fleecy Moss, since September 2000. The group reorganized and nominated the
following speakers:
- Red (developers) speaker, John Chandler
- Green (companies) speaker, greenboy
- Joint Blue (users) speakers, Marcus Petersson and Greg Webb
If you would like to join the group you can register
here
and if so support other speakers.
SVM
Many thanks to all who've contributed to the discussions on the SVM Simple
Virtual Machine. Even greater thanks to Timo Suoranta for getting the whole
thing rolling and Marcus Petersson for providing valuable feedback.
Information on the SVM proposal as it currently stands is available here -
please read, enjoy and contribute your thoughts. For those who missed the
beginning of this fascinating task, the original document is available here.
This isn't exactly a light discussion and some understanding of assembly
language coding would aid any participants - but don't be intimidated!

MorphOS

MorphOS V0.4 with WarpOS Emu
Version v0.4 of MorphOS, an emulation for PPC Amigas, has been released.
This version supports the AmigaOS 3.5/3.9 ROM update modules, but external modules,
too. Thus theoretically everyone may write and use his/her own ROM update modules.
Now also the WarpOS emulation is supported, so for example you can play
Warp3D supported HereticII under MorphOS, too. You will find an extended documentation
of the improvements in the
readme file.
Additionally the ´PPC MUI 3.9 Public Release 1´ is available which is the second
MUI archive for PPC for MorphOS. (MorphOS V0.4 suggested).

New Version (V.44.50 beta 1) of the HSMathLibs for MC68881/82
Again there is a new version for registered users of the HSMathLibs.
Some bugs have been fixed and some smaller optimizations have been done.
For sure the essential enhancement in this version is the complete
compatibility with OS3.9 and support of (hopefully) all of the special cases for
the mathe-libraries.

Markus Holler: New Site at mp3.com
From now on there is a new site at mp3.com with music of Markus Holler. He works as a free musican
on various projects. First of all he composes soundtracks for computer games (for instance for
Tales of Tamar or Operation: Counterstrike),
but he also set videos to music (e.g. the presentation of the company
Visum Informationssysteme GmbH
or he set the fair reports of Virtual Dimension) to music,
and composing of music pieces is one of his work.
Markus Holler has made up his mind to remaster his last MODs (with EQing, panorama, effect, compressing, etc...)
to give them a studio-like quality. Under the title link you can certainly listen to some music in
the next time! Check it out!

Also an Amiga-IRC-channel
An AmigaChannel at irc.euirc.net with the topics BBS, Amiga and mutual user help is possible. Can be also used
as Amiga market. Main emphasis of me is to build up PMBS for the help or at least clearing starting
problems. The channel #humpis is already available for a while and has some regular users.
- Data for the channel:
- irc.euirc.net
- #humpis
- Port: 6667
If you have questions or problems please send a mail to
Jochen@Humpis.insider.org or
humpis@t-online.de.
Remark of the editor:
We recommend all chatters to create a website about their channel and the main topic (which Amiga topic
is discussed mainly) as well as the data for logging in and then to enter this homepage in the category
"IRC/Chat" in our Amiga Link Directory. In this way interested persons can find their channels long-term.

Golem: The world of Voodoo-graphic Boards is Open to Amiga
»From now on all Voodoo-graphic boards in Elbox Mediator PCI busboard are usable for Amiga
The Amiga-hardware producer Elbox has completed the "Voodoo.card ver. 1.0 driver" for its Mediator PCI
bus boards. This driver makes possible the use of all obtainable PCI-Voodoo-graphic boards - up to Voodoo5 5500 PCI -
on Amiga-1200-computers which are extended with Mediator.
There has been a driver for Voodoo3-PCI-graphic boards and corresponding Mediator-bundles since the last year
but now also the other Voodoo-graphic boards can be used: Voodoo Banshee 8 MB, Voodoo3 2000/3000 16 MB, Voodoo4 4500 32 MB and
Voodoo5 5500 64 MB. The driver which has been developed by Elbox itself are supposed to offer full
hardware acceleration but which is restricted to 24-bit-graphic mode at Voodoo4-and Voodoo5-graphic boards.«

Heise: Compaq Coming Up with a New Alpha Processor
»According to Compaq it's available from yesterday: the new Alpha processor
21264 with 833 MHz. By Compaq's account the
fastest industrial processor of the world runs in the new AlphaServer ES40. This
server was especially designed for database applications doing a high degree of
calculations, such like e-business solutions basing on Oracle Software.
According to Compaq in Oracle Application Benchmark the ES40 slapped the opposers
IBM H70 and Sun E450 with more than twice the results. Also in the case of other
benchmarks like the SAP Business Warehousing and the SPEC CPU2000 the new
admiral would be clearly ahead.«
