All over the world more than 60 Amga related trademarks are still registered with various local trademark offices (overview, PDF). For the vast majority of them, the owner is listed as 'Amiga Inc., New York'. But the registration of a trademark has to be renewed in regular intervalls by its owner - usually every ten years - otherwise the mark gets deleted.

Amicast: Interview with Toni Wilen
In the blog of the English podcast Amicast an interview with Toni Wilen has been published. He is well-known for the development of the Amiga emulator WinUAE but has also written file manager FileMaster.
In the interview he mainly talked about the WinUAE and his future plans: Adding missing expansion cards, improving the compatibility, using of several emulated graphic cards simultaneously and emulating the micro controller 4510 (CDTV-CR) which controls the communication with the front-LCD. For the emulation of the controller he asks for ROMs. For further details please have a look at the WinUAE main page.

AlternativeTo.net helps searching for software alternatives. For instance, when you switch from Windows to Linux, you can check what is a free Microsoft Word alternative for that operating system.
Since yesterday the service also lists programs for AmigaOS, MorphOS and AROS. The database depends on third party submissions, thus (after registration) there is a form to add further software.
