Tornado-News From The Mailinglist
Sample from a mail, written by Massimiliano Marras, Eyelight founder and sole owner:
Just to clarify: there are no plans to drop Amiga development. Tornado3D is an Amiga
product and will stay Amiga and Three-Oh will be released and I hope it will please (most)
everybody. And there will for sure a 4.0 version next year. Those are official statements.
Rest assured that present and future loyal T3D users will NOT be left out in the cold.

Viruschecker.brain Update Version 2.21
Download: vhtvb221.lha
A new trojan virus has been discovered, too. It has been removed from Aminet, but this might have been spread, so take care...
The trojan will after it has been executed, replace the
'c:loadwb' with a new 'loadwb' with the size of 84.772 bytes, and create a
file in your wbstartup drawer called "Workbench" (size 40.668 bytes, packed), and now the trojan is ready to 'play' with your Amiga. You can find this textstring in the file:
GuRuX mEdItAtIoNz: [JoShUa`S tRoJaN]`/AdDrEzZ: [yOuR ComPuTeR]
TaZk: [SyStEm KiLlEr]
MoRe iNfOrMaTiOn: censored
This trojan is made with AMOS, and it is a lame trojan.....
Here is some info about the archive:
Name : New msx-2 Turbo R emulator
Trojan name : Amos Joshua Trojan
Archive name : msxR.lha
Archive size : 124.196 bytes
Trojan name : msxR.exe
Trojan size : 128.800 bytes (144.320 bytes unpacked)
Short desc : New msx-2 Turbo R emulator for 030 040 060
This trojan has been sendt to all the antivirus programmers and they will
make recog. for this trojan in the next update.
Thanx to Heiner Schneegold, Jan Erik Olausen and Alex van Niel for the
fast test. And to Gringo, Urban for the first reports about this trojan. (ps)

IBM PowerPC Open Plattform as PPC-Amiga?
Volker Grabbe writes:
Who wants to help me using the IBM plattform to create an Amiga-compatible PPC
computer? At the title link, IBM has released a PPC750 mainboard with AGP and
everything.
I am now looking for software developers helping me in writing an
emulating environment enabling AmigaOS 3.5 and later (hopefully) to-be-released
versions to run.
I need programmers who know UAE, and the coding of graphic board
drivers based on Picasso96. Informations about graphic chips, and developer
kits for the board will be made available from me. Contact:
Volker Grabbe.

The Airsoft homepage actually gives a screenshot of every Rainboot bootconfiguration. So you can review your configuration
before downloading it. Too bad you cant hear the many excellent sounds played during the booting.

AROS:State Of Developement Of The IBM Version
The code to build AROS standalone (to boot an IBM compatible PC) is now much
better integrated into the rest of the system. After boot, AROS opens a VGA
screen (no use of the text mode just like on the Amiga) and you are in SAD.
When the console is finished (should be just a couple of hours to finish...
if someone has the time and the knowledge ?), we will have a new Amiga based
on PC hardware.

ZDNet: ITG shopping list: Communications, consumer electronics
More rumors. An article speculates about a cooperation between Amiga and IBM.
Another potentially major customer is Gateway Inc. The North Sioux City, S.D., company's Amiga
division is developing a wide range of information appliances, including game players and Web access
devices. A deal with Amiga would be a boost to ITG's plan to enable "pervasive computing." Gateway
already has a cross-licensing agreement with IBM, but Gateway officials wouldn't say what the deal
covers. Neither party would comment on a potential deal with Amiga.
