Apple: Decreasig Market Value
Financial Time Germany: "Apple: Different problems than the rest of the PC branch"
«From surprised to outraged was the reaction of financial analysts on the reduced profit forecast
of the US computer manufacturer Apple. Several influential banks changed their bargain recommendation for
Apple shares into warnings on weekend. Admittedly some of the banks mentioned Apple's problems not to
be typical for the branch.
Surprisingly Apple reduced their profit forecast for all business units on Thursday. The Apple market lost
52% of value, almost 9 milliards USD of market value were lost.»

Shoutcast/Icecast Client Released for the Amiga
Sebastian Jedruszkiewicz has written a Shoutcast/Icecast Client for the Amiga
and called it "StreAmi". There are two very popular audio streaming systems called
Icecast and Shoutcast which are able to send MPG audio compressed audio data
through the net. StrAmi allows you to fetch these audio files from any server
and listen to them in real time.
This way, you can very easily listen to radio via internet. The program has a
MUI interface and requires nothing more than a TCP/IP stack like Miami or AmiTCP
and of course a fast internet access. You'll find lists of servers at
www.shoutcast.com and
www.icecast.org.

Amiga Impact Cooperates with Planet
Online magazines increasingly cooperate with print magazines. The French
online and news magazine "Amiga Impact" announces to cooperate in future
with the print magazine "Planet".
amiga-news.de for example cooperates with the German
Amiga Magazin.
These partnerships are very positive for both sides as resource sharing means
that the print magazines can concentrate on the editing of the news without
having to spend considerable time to look for news.
