BTX/CEPT access changed
T-Online has changed its access to the old services. For Windwos there is an upgrade available.
Unfortunately Multiterm 5 does not manage with the changed protocol and reports a socket error.
So the comfortable online-banking with the Amiga has an end. Or does anybody have a solution for this
problem?

Since yesterday I've had a functioning PayPal Account. So now there is an easy way to pay the shareware fees over the Internet.
- Action Pay Feature
This action allows the user to, after a previous consultation for reasons of practicality, "purchase" a new feature [he will code the feature you request into one of his programs. -DM].
- Amiga98 St. Louis lectures online
I have uploaded my seminars that I made at Amiga '98 in St. Louis.

Amiga Society: BBoAH and LBoAS updated
Amiga Society has updated the "Big Book of Amiga Hardware" (BBoAH) as well as the "Little Book of Amiga Software" (LBoAS).
Additionally Horst Diebel made a statement regarding "Schlachtfeld":
"After some people gave up Schlachtfeld already here is a brief statement:
It is correct that we actually are at some kind of a dead point. There are one/two errors which simply seem to don't want to be found for any reason.
And additionally we don't have that much time - so solving this problem will not be too soon. In parallel we develop the new Amiga map editor for the new Schlachtfeld firstly. For the weekend I am looking forward to publish some new pictures - actually a playable demo can't be published yet - unfortunately!"
