Events: AmiWest 2001 - News
From 27th to 29th July, 2001 the AmiWest 2001 show will take place in Sacramento, U.S.A..
According to the latest announcements
there will be the following highlights:
- Presentation of the working AmigaOne with AmigaOS V4.0.
- Presentation of the current version of the AmigaDE, running on the Sharp Zaurus.
Sharp Zaurus.
- Dr. Alan Havemose (formerly employee of Commodore, and Gateway)
and Bill McEwen speak about: "Gateway and Amiga - what really happened".
Furthermore the press release reads, that the AmigaOne 1200 would be in progress from
the end of July and available from the middle of August. But this remains subjunctive, since it
will be official news only when Amiga Inc. or Eyetech do an announcement about.

Amiga Flame with new URL
The commercial Amiga Flame web server account will be closing down as a result of problems with
the new company who have taken over. Since the original company went out of the business there
has been some serious problems, which have made it difficult to make Amiga Flame up and running
under the new company. With it unlikely that their service will improve, the decision was made to
move Amiga Flame.
Amiga Flame has moved to Demon, a long established company who tend to provide an efficient and
effective service. It is vital that readers update their bookmarks and make themselves aware of the
new web address of Amiga Flame: http://www.amigaflame.demon.co.uk (title link).

NARR-Site: New Voyager Theme and Update
Again I did a new fresh and sunny theme named 'SummerTheme' for the Amiga web-browser Voyager.
The archive contains the usual buttons represented by exotic fruits and with matching background pic,
this time. The images a are quite big, so higher screen resolutions are advised.
Screenshot Link - 328 kB
Download: summertheme.lha - 174 kB
Additionally I have completely reworked the NARR website. Most of all the Amiga section
now is more clear sorted by categories, to make you more easily finding what you are looking for.
There are new downloads, too, e.g. a small icons set, and catalogs. The admin section was enhanced, too:
there are new screenshots of my cartoon anims, which are currently available for free, and the biggest
animation (Hr. Apfel) now is available as MPEG version, also. Also new is the 'Personal Amiga' section.
Have fun while rummaging. :)

Benelux Amiga Show: Report and Pictures by the AUC-HB
The Amiga User Club Bremen, AUC-HB,
has send us an extended report and these nice pictures
from the BAS 2001.
Report about the Benelux Amiga Show 2001 in Rotterdam, Netherlands
In the morning at 3:00 h four members from Nordenham, Leer, Langwedel, Bremen of
the Amiga User Club Bremen met to travel to the show. After four hours of traveling
by car we arrived in the Hammerstraat in northern Rotterdam.
We were hungry and wanted something to eat in a moment (Mc´D or some bakery). But unfortunately
we had to realize, that hairdressers open their shops before the bread shops; not to talk about
Mc´D, cause they open not before 9:00 am. After we finally found a baker, who pleased us with
a marvelous breakfast, we went to the show which was supposed to begin on 10:00 am.
On 9:30 am Juergen Haage and Petry Tyschtschenko arrived by taxi. Since we know Mr. Haage and
Petro in person we had a short talk. Mr. Haage and Petro then disappeared to join a meeting with
Fleecy Moss, Alan Redhouse, and Ben Hermans.
On 11:00 am, one hour later than announced, the inlet started.
The admission charge for visitors from outside was at the promised DM5.
Our impression was that the organizers really took pain to build up the show. The show
was arranged on two floors. There were enough seats and room for discussions.
At one booth we could have a look at an Amiga 4000D with the Prometheus PCI board
by Matay, equipped with a Voodoo 3000 and running the game Heretic II. We were glowing by
the display by this graphics board.
At the booth beside of this booth a PC with the AmigaSDK installed was running.
We were impressed by this presentation, too. Moreover several Amigas from club-members
were networked and a LAN party took place.
Petro opened the Amiga museum with a speech and then was helpful and councillor and his
assistance was heavily enlisted; he handed out stickers and pins.
The show was attended very well and from 2:00 pm it was really filled, since
the Scala presentation of the AmigaONE took place, done via screen by Alan Redhouse and
Martin Schueler. They had a good projector and sound was well, so everyone could get it.
The strategy for AmigaONE and AmigaOS 4 to 5 was put across, but which was already known
by us. During the break we had the opportunity to have a look at the AmigaONE board plugged
into a V-Tower. We don't want to address the information we got from Martin Schueler, now.
The board was shown working, but we can imagine it to able to be presented working, soon.
During the discussion with Fleecy Moss, Juergen Haage, Alan Redhouse, Ben Hermans, and
Martin Schueler queries regarding the AmigaONE AND AmigaOS 4 - 5 could be done.
This was richly done, and as we learned the organizer of the show is about to put those
questions and answers online.
We took a lot of pictures on the show, but to edit all of them will take some time.
We handed out to amiga-news.de a first selection.
Our video specialist Ralf has done a video of the show for our members.

We met Mrs. and Mr. Does (Vesalia, German Amiga vendor) and Jens Schoenfeld (Individual Computer)
and intensively talked. The show was a clear success to us not comparable with the last years' shows
in Cologne and Neuss, since that was an Amiga only show. We felt to be part of a
big community. From Mr. Haage we got the latest BoingBag for OS3.9 on a bank card sized CD. At 4:00 pm
we went on our journey back home to Bremen.
Thanks to the organizers of the Benelux Amiga Show 2001 !!!
Amiga User Club Bremen

REBOL: REBOL/View V1.2.1
REBOL/View 1.2.1 has been released on June 22, 2001. It is recommended that you
upgrade your copy of REBOL/View and View/Pro to this new version.
Among other things has a security bug been fixed in this version. This
release also introduces REBOL/View for the Macintosh. This is a
significant accomplishment.
The following has been changed compared with the previous version:
- Bugfix: Icon DRAW evaluation bug that allowed foreign code to be executed
at the desktop level. That problem has been eliminated.
(Note that this bug did NOT compromise REBOL's built-in sandbox
file protection, as that protection still remained in effect at the
REBOL/View root directory level. Files outside of REBOL's directory
tree were safe.) DRAW is no longer allowed within desktop icons.
- Bugfix: The HTTP POST operation has been fixed to properly ignore line
termination in the transfer. You no longer need to pad out your
HTTP uploads. (This is for read/custom http://... [post "data"]).
- Bugfix: Bugs that caused load/markup and debase to crash in rare cases
have also been fixed.
The current version for different systems can be found in the download area of rebol.com.

Benelux Amiga Show: first report (update 3)
Otis from the Amiga User Club Bremen has
just given us first details about the show by phone. First of all it has to be
said that the dance school where the event is taking place is overcrowded as many,
many visitors have come. For the promoters of the show in any case a big success.
The event is taking place on two floors with the exhibitors being downstairs and
the LAN party happening upstairs.
During the call I had the opportunity to talk to Martin Schüler from ESCENA who's working on the design of the AmigaOne board by Eyetech. The
AmigaOne board is presented as prototype in second revision. The board isn't
working yet. For now they continue step by step and every step done until now
has worked without any problems. He'll try to give us more technical information during
the day via email.
Supplement:
I just had again the chance to talk to Thomas from the AUC-HB, who gave us more
impressions via telephone about the show. Those will be posted here as short
notes as there'll be a full report done by the AUCB following tomorrow:
Petro Tyschtschenko hold the opening speech.
Interesting was the presentation of the PCI board Prometheus by Matay on which a Voodoo3000 graphics board was
running. A version of the game ´Heretic II´ running on this board was shown
so everyone could convince himself of the board's quality.
Fleecy Moss of Amiga Inc. presented the SDK (Software Developer Kit) and was at
disposal to answer questions. On this occasion the AmigaOS 5.0 planned for the year 2003 was mentioned.
On a Q&A round Fleecy Moss, Alan Redhouse, Martin Schüler and Jürgen
Haage answered to the questions of the visitors.
Supplement 2:
At Fun Time World you find some photos
of the show, and a comprehensive report will follow.
Supplement 3:
Here's the full report of
Fun Time World. (ps)

Amiga Arena News
Amiga Arena special discount campaign
In co-operation with Andre Beer the Amiga Arena makes a special price for GeoWorld possible. GeoWorld is the only geography program for the Amiga that is still
in development. Please visit for further information the GeoWorld homepage.
Amiga Arena - GeoWorld call
GeoWorld is one of the very few programs that stand out against the usual Amiga
software. The developers have collected a huge amount of information and data to
make GeoWorld as comprehensive as possible. Despite this such a program
"lives" of its up-to-date data.
To make faster updates possible and offer furtheron an allround program the
developers need your help. The following tasks are available:
- Continuing the recollection of the nature data of the countries.
- A co-operation on the information data of GeoWorld would therefore need an
intellectual reception of the source texts made available (scanned
encyclopedia pages, html/text files taken from the internet, partly in
English) and put them into corresponding texts (e.g. description of a country's nature).
A free full version will of course be made available. Further fees -
participation in sales returns - for appropriate extensive co-operation are
possible but don't expect any wonders. People with interest may please mail to: Andre Beer.
Amiga Arena remark by Olaf Köbnik
Surely many of you wonder why this all?
Sources for information are offered by the internet, and many programs for the PC
do so, too. But I belong to the little number of Amiga users who are "Amiga
only", and I personally think it is very valuable that such programs will be
developed on the Amiga in the future. Additionally it is much more fun for me to
use information sources on the Amiga. I can only ask you to support programs
like AmiAtlas and Geoworld with feedback etc.! (ps)

Matay news
Warp3D Treiber for Voodoo3
Matay informs that the promised Warp3D drivers for Voodoo3 graphics cards on the
PCI board Prometheus are in the works and has put some screenshots online.
PPC for Prometheus
As many people ask about CPU boards for the PCI board Prometheus, Matay
gives the following statement:
- Matay is not going to produce the PPC card by itself. We will choose
among the CPU solutions available at the market (not necessarily
"Amiga native" only). It would take too much time and concern to
produce such a card, time we can spend providing you with other
Amiga-specifict products. Why to invent wheel again?
- The only problem to solve is software support to make the hardware
cooperate with our PCI bridge. However, with the help of AmigaOS4
developers from Amiga Inc. it is not a problem at all. We will
cooperate with them to make Prometheus+CPU card combo 100% compatible
with the upcoming AmigaOS.
- We are not limiting our support to one CPU card only. You should view
a CPU card expansion the same as - for example - a graphics card expansion.
More than one solution is possible.
- The details will be announced after we finish talks with the CPU cards
manufacturers. As we always state - no promises, only facts, so please
be patient. In meanwhile, you can use Prometheus boards with the
existing Amiga CPU cards. The software, i.e. AmigaOS4, will arrive later
this year, so will our hardware to run it on.
Vacation time
Because of vacation time, the phone number +48 609394778 and the e-mail address
fei@matay.pl won't be available from June 22nd to July 9th, 2001 and from July 21st
to September 6th, 2001. Contact Matay during these times at +48 603785100
and info@matay.pl instead.

You steer a spaceship in the center of the screen; colored blocks grow out of
the screen borders towards you. To stop them, you are armed with a colored
disc with which you can shoot at the blocks.
Should the color of the disc match that of the shot block, your score increases
and the block vanishes. If not, the disc will be thrown back to you and the
colors of block and disc will be exchanged. The new color of the disc then maybe
allows the elimination of another block.
If your disc hits a row of blocks that have the same color, the entire row vanishes.
The first block scores the usual points, any further two times the usual points.
The game ends when the blocks have reached you.

Java on handheld devices - in vogue
Should somebody still question whether it makes any sense to work in the embedded
market with Java - SaveJe brings Java2SE to the ARM/XScale processor.
Planned release of version 1.0 is in september.
This means that who's interested in programming for handheld devices should take
Java into consideration. It also means that Amiga Inc. has to hurry. (Solar)
