Next, the ROMulus module goes into production.
Expansive information about this particular expansion, among many long-awaited expansions, may be found under the
title link, respectively the English language information may be found

Poll about AmigaOS 4.0 Started
There are as many opinions as there are people. Others don't ask, but amiga-news.de wants your opinion!
In response to the query from ´eliotmc´ in our
AN Discussion Forum we started a poll about Amiga OS 4.0. We are interested in finding out which hardware you would like to buy OS4 for. For possible answers (multiple answers are unfortunately not available with this script) you have the following selection possibilities:
- Classic Amiga with PPC
- Classic Amiga with Shark
- AmigaOne
- Pegasos (assuming OS4 runs on Pegasos)
- I will not buy OS4
You can read the current results here.

AmiStart Start Menu: Is There Still Interest in Further Development?
Darius Brewka released version 0.63 of AmiStart in September 2002, as we (reported).
AmiStart is a start menu similar to that found in Microsoft Windows, with a quick launchbar, drag&drop support and a reconfigurable
graphic overlay which allows transparency, rounded corners, background textures, a shape layer (with reconfigurable and programmable
skins controllable by external applications via ARexx). One example is the shape layer of Songplayer.
Because the author has some time, he is interested in knowing if there is interest in further development of AmiStart and, if so, how strong
this interest is. Would anyone like to make some suggestions or report some bugs? Give Darius some feedback, write him to say what could
be improved.

Golem: Execution of Many Programs Burns Out the iPAQ 5450
In a document from the Hewlett-Packard (HP) support databank the manufacturer of the iPAQ 5450 warns against running too many
programs at the same time. When many programs run in parallel, the speed of the gadget can be massively degraded. Also, Amiga
Anywhere runs on the iPAQ 5450. Read the complete report at Golem IT-News (click on the title link).
