Amiga Arena News
Amiga Arena exclusively presents two more special price offers.
Both of these tools are proper indispensable for every Amiga user.
Please, support the developers!
xadmaster.library at Special Price!
In a co-operation with Dirk Stoecker Amiga Arena makes possible xadmaster.library
at a special price valid until 10-31-2000. By the use of xadmaster.library you
can unpack any feasible data files, and disk archives. With a GUI, e.g. Vodoo-X,
xadmaster.library is indispensable for the dayly use of archives.
VisiualPrefs at Special Price!
In a co-operation with Massimo Tantignone Amiga Arena makes possible VisualPrefs
at a special price. VPrefs is the system tool to prettify your Workbench, and
offers numberless possibilities to design windows, buttons, etc. Without that tool
the Workbench appears "old-fashioned".
Amiga Arena Interview Project!
A new interview with Massimo Tantignone (VisualPrefs) is online.

New Version of InstallerNG
On the "Official InstallerNG Site" there is a new version for the
well known Installer replacement, the InstallerNG, available for
free download. A number of small bugs were fixed, and a new function
was added. Attention: the support for MEDIA functions basing on
datatype still is under development and therefore might be buggy.
Furthermore the example scripts were worked over, and the manual was
adapted.

H&P

Haage & Partner Reachable Again
During works on the company building telephone line was damaged. Due to this from Thursday to Monday
H&P wasn't fully reachable, and most of all they could not receive e-mails. Now everything
is working again and H&P now has a DSL connection, too.
H&P used the "free time" to do some changes of their homepage. Impressum, copyright, and data secureness
are new sections accessible via text links in the footer. Many other pages have been overworked and
updated, e.g. most of the FAQ pages giving answers to frequently asked questions.
On the start page of the shop from now on is to find the bargain of the week.

Metabox Share Free Falling
Metabox, once stock jobber' favourite in the new market, were not able to fulfill
their volume announced early this year.
One was talking about orders amounting to millions, that time - in fact just
declarations of intent by anonymous, but bulk purchasers from foreign countries.
After that the Metabox share shot up, and was the favourite of every risk loving
investor, all summer.
Since several days share is in the red continuous, and today for some time went below -50%
after the company from Hildesheim, Germany, released a profit caution. The initial
volume forecast of 198 Mio. DM was audited to 70 Mio. DM. At this time the share is
at a price of 7,- EUR. Top price was converted into euros (due to share split)
45,80EUR in July.
Metabox beside internet boxes for TV-sets also produces G3 boards for the Mac,
and had announced an Amiga version of these boards, the "AmiJoe". If AmiJoe
ever will be released is doubtful, now.

KDH-Datentechnick
|
Business Plays Trickily ;-)
Selling of both, Amiga soft and hardware is stagnating - that's nothing new.
But new is an idea of KDH-Datentechnik to bridge this depression in trade with
party-gags. What is being offered? This things ist called "Orgasmatron", looks
like a big beater, and should knead the scalp catering for unstressing, and
a sense of well-being.
"Hushes while waiting for PPC boards, new Amiga games, PCI boards, AmigaOne, etc.",
concludes KDH - what at least is evident for the proper portion of humor they own.

Gary Peake: Statement on the AmigaSDK for Windows
We have, as our first concern, developers. Developers need to be able to
make money or they stop developing for a platform as we have all seen.
Windows currently holds 85% of the desktop market.
Having said that, envision a run-time environment that is so small you can
sell a CD of YOUR applications, games, etc along with this run-time
environment and know that it will load and run on Windows, Linux, etc.
How valuable is this to a developer?
Once the AmigaDE takes hold and as market share increases, then we have
even more opportunity for our developers (who are all hungry or should be
after a 9 year drought).
On the up side, there is this list, where new Linux SDK users may get
the assistance they need to remain un-shafted, and Amiga Inc.
continues to work and partner with more factions of the Linux and Open
Source communities.
And our commitment to open source won't waiver. It takes BOTH kinds of
development to enhance a platform.

WarpGIF: Rectification
If many voices are emphasing the same suggestion, so you start to believe this suggestion, even
if it isn't true. If fell for this well known phsycologic phenomenon myself.
Contrary to the opinion of many users the gif-subclass of the picture.datatype is not capable
of viewing animated GIFs within browsers. Many users claimed the original OS3.5 gif.datatype
to able to do that. Unfortunately I cannot validate this.
Therefore also with the WarpGIF.datatype only the first image of an animated GIF is viewed!
The animation only can be viewed by the respective PlugIn of the browser.
