Amiga Future survey
We want to evaluate the users opinions of OS 3.5. So, on our homepage in the area "Aktion" we created a page where we ask the following specific questions:

The AmigaOS 3.5 is available now for some time. We want to know from you what you think about it! What do you like in AmigaOS 3.5, and what do you dislike? What is missing, and what is getting you upset in it? Or did you expand your AmigaOS 3.5 with additional tools? Which tools do you use no longer?

Write to us! We will release the results on our homepage! Of course, tips and tricks for AmigaOS 3.5 are wellcome, too. (Translation: mb)

grafik-umsonst.de now with Amiga area
AMIGA. This device is cult. These pages are meant as a bow before the spirit of a creative community. A sworn community, which after years of discontinued development holds high the ideals of a computer that enabled multimedia even before that term was coined.

Due to this, an Amiga area has been created (still under construction). Everyone owning an Amiga, or has created pictures with one, can help. Many thanks to the Amiga-Magazin for the friendy authorization.

Many other graphics of www.grafik-umsonst.de have also been created on Amiga: e.g. the background series "am", "amnew" and "co" in the "Hintergrund" area, "big" and "at" in "Hintergr2". (Translation: mb)

Emergency at IOM - harddisk crash
Bad news from IOM. Due to a hard drive crash all project files, all mails, addresses and many more has been destroyed.

There is however a small chance to revive the hard drive. It is a

Quantum Fireball TM 3.2 GB SCSI HD, type 3200S P/N TM32S012 Rev 02-B

If someone has an idea, we would wellcome your input. If someone owns the same disk and manages to unscrew the circuit board, we would be happy if we could lend it for some time. The disk was connected to the CyberstormPPC SCSI controller, formatted with SFS.

There will be a reward. Please call: +49 (0)9281 7676 990. We couldn't reconfigure the e-mail access yet. Many thanks. (Translation: mb)

New AMIGA Website online
Since the new IP address has not yet been added to all Domain Name Servers, the "new" www.amiga.com page can be visited at http://209.15.87.244. "New" in quotes because the layout should be well-known from Schindler times.

Changing IPs the week after such an important event; the information given at the show still not available from the website; switching back to a year-old layout, looking even less professional than before... I hope Amiga is better at R&D than they are at PR... (mb) (Translation: mb)

Miriam 2.0 Homepage reworked
The layout has been reworked by IOM and the screenshot have been shrunk. The main page is now using Javascript.

Miriam 2.0 is a software which controls Lanetco videosplitt computers like those used in monitor walls. Since the original software runs under MS-DOS, a software had been especially developed for the Amiga and used during the Amiga International Inc. Apparition at the Computer '98 fair. In the meanwhile this software has been improved and developed further and has now more functionality than the DOS version. The communication with the splitt computer is also faster th an under MS-DOS. So Miriam is an powerful Amiga software which can be used in professional presentation business. (Translation: mb)

More details on AMIGA's plans
At Czech Amiga News, Roger Wyatt tells more news from the Amiga show in St. Louis, USA, according to statements made by AMIGA President Bill McEwen.

I can remember one statement from the last Executive Update: "If it is not from our (Amiga Inc.) website, it is not true."
It is quite possible that some details from the Amiga 2K turn out to be April Fool's jokes, or wishful thinking. However, this cannot be all made up. Great things are moving, and I really look forward to the official confirmations on these details... (mb)

Fleecy Moss informs about developer system and plans
+++ AMIGA-aktuell-Special +++
AMIGA Vice President Fleecy Moss has just informed about the Amiga Developer System and the company's plans on an IRC conference taking place on the Amiga show Amiga 2K taking place today in St. Louis, USA. The important details folow:
  • The Developer System contains an AMD K6 (500 MHz), 64 MB RAM and GeForce 256, which runs the Tao System very well.
  • However only the Virtual Processor is of importance, which already runs on x86, PowerPC, MIPS, ARM, SH4 and other mega-CPUs which will be announced soon.
  • The Developer System currently runs "hosted" on a Linux kernel.
  • Tao only provides the core for the new OS.
  • The kernel has a size of 25 Kb, the whole OS including GUI and Java needs 3 MB RAM.
  • The GUI system is seperated, making it possible to add multiple GUI modules.
  • The first GUI model will be very different from today's AmigaOS GUI, but users are free to create whatever they want.
  • The Developer System should be available in two to four weeks, for everyone.
  • The end-user system is scheduled for this year.
  • Two user groups are targeted: The "digital adventurer" (an expansion of the miga market today) and those who basically don't like computers (Domestic Digital Habitat).
  • The new Amiga website (http://www.amiga.com) will go online in a few days.
  • Developer software will be available from a support website.
  • Later on, the developer software should run on any PC with the named specifications, but support will only be offered for those purchasing the system from AMIGA.
  • Today, partnerships with multi-billion dollar companies will be announced.
  • The Amiga technology will be available for licensing for any company with a good idea and a little money.
  • Today, there will be an announcement concerning AROS (Amiga Replacement OS).
  • AMIGA itself is currently not working on an 68k emulation, but is in contact with several companies willing to take over this job (but for different goals).

Well, I'd like to mention my article posted a few days ago, for those users who have not read it already and now are disappointed by this announcement. (And no, I didn't know anything more than a casual reader of the news and Executive Updates... ;-)) (mb) (Translation: mb)

Heise: Trackerlabels: The pioneers of online music
«In the beginning there was the Amiga, Commodore's flagship in the battle for young home users. For musicians, the box did not have much to offer, everybody with some little equipment in those times went rather for the Atari ST. For the ST, there was professional software like Cubase, and it had a MIDI interface. But the Amiga had many, many colors. 4096, to be exact. That was a lot for the times when expensive PCs had either 4 or 16 colors. Compared to that, the Amiga was something like the first multimedia computer. The fitting multimedia software, though, everybody had to make on his own. And the kids programmed like mad. They cracked commercial game software, replaced their intros with own ones and spreaded their dared animations as so-called demos - some kind of electronic graffiti culture came into existance.

The cult got in motion when 1987 a certain Karsten Obarski published a program named "Soundtracker" for the Amiga. Obarski worked for the game company Eidos and probably wouldn't have dreamed back then that he would have been celebrated more than 10 years later as a hero for this step The Karsten Obarski Tribute Project. But he set with this simple program the foundation for a whole scene.»

Swedish and danish Amiga magazines

It is not only bad things  going  on  in  the  market  for  Amiga
magazines.  About  three months ago the Amiga community in Sweden
again got access to a magazine about Amiga in their own language.
This  magazine  is produced by the danish magazine Amiga Advis in
cooperation with Rolf Eric. He has this good point and  advantage
that he is born and bred in Sweden.

Temporarily he stays in Denmark but have learned  himself  danish
so  therefore  he  is  not  only  a  pawn  in the translation and
publishing in Sweden. We hope that som swedish writers will  join
the  list  of  suppliers  of  articles to the magazines. When the
magazines springs from the same source  they  could  exploit  the
united  efforts.  Both  the  swedish  and the danish editions are
medleys of reviews, courses, notices, correspondence columns etc.
In short, throughout a real magazine with what beongs to that.

But in short  of  costs,  the  magazines  are  not  published  in
colours.  If you are interested in supporting these magazines you
can obtain them in the

following ways:

With swedish and danish regards

Amiga Advis

Svensk och dansk Amigamagasin

Det händer inte bara dåliga saker på Amigamagasin  området  idag.
För  cirka  tre  månader  sedan  fick  AmigaSverige  återigen ett
Amigamagasin. Detta magasin startades av Amiga Advis i sammarbeta
med Rolf Eric som har den fördel att ha varit född och uppvuxen i
Stockholmstrakterna, men bor tillfälligt i Köpenhamn.

Rolf har blivit en viktig bricka i  att  få  de  danska  texterna
översatta  till  svenska.  Dock hoppas vi på att det också kommer
svenska skribenter för att tidningarna  ska  kunna  växa  samman.
Detta  vill  vi  uppnå  för  att  undvika  känslan av att den ena
tidningen kommer ur den andra, så att vi får  en  känsla  av  att
tidningen skapas från samma källa.

Båda  utgåvorna  av  tidningen  är  en  blandning av anmälningar,
kurser, aktuella artiklar, läsarbrev med  mera.  Kort  sagt  helt
igenom  ett  riktigt  Amigamagasin med allt som där tillhör, dock
utkommer Amiga Advis i svart|vitt tryck.

Är du intresserad i att ansluta dig till detta Amigablad, kan  du
anskaffa dig något av dem på följande sätt

Svenskspråkiga Amiga Advis

Den svenska utgåvan har kommit ut med två nummer och  den  tredje
är  snart  kommen  från  tryck och ska vara klar till utgivning i
loppet av en vecka. 1999 (sv) är  på  24  sidor  i  A4format  och
kostar SEK 25,-

2000/01 (sv) är på 36 sidor i A4format och kostar SEK 35,-
2000/02 (sv) och framåt kommer att vara på cirka 36 sidor i A4 och

Dette magasin blev startet af det danske Amiga-magasin Amiga Advis i samarbejde med Rolf Eric som har den fordel at være født og opvokset i Sverige, men som nu midlertidigt bor i Danmark. Under sit ophold i Danmark har Rolf lært sig dansk og med disse engenskaber er han en specielt vigtig brik i at få det danske blad oversat til svensk. Dog håber vi på at der også kommer svenske skribenter til, sådan at disse blade der udspringer af samme kilde, frem for at det ene kun er afskrift af det andet, kan have bidrag fra begge læserkredse. Både det svenske blad og det danske blad er en blanding af anmeldelser, kurser, aktuelle artikler, læserbreve m.m., kort sagt, helt igennem et rigtigt magasin med hvad dertil hører.
