Health: MouseBean Ergonomic Hand Rest
An independent study has shown that three
out of four computer mouse users suffering
from workrelated
upper limb disorders (WRULDs) and painful
hands and wrists, found their symptoms
alleviated after only two weeks of using
the MouseBean Ergonomic Hand Rest. This
is important
news for the increasing number of computer
users suffering from WRULDs and for businesses
losing millions of working days each year

to recover from
these disabling conditions.

Source Code Released of Civilization: Call to Power II
On 28th October 2003 Activision released for free the source code for the strategy game "Civilization: Call to Power II." It may be downloaded from the website of Apolyton . Because the hardware requirements are moderate, PC hardware with a speed of 166 MHz and memory of 64 megs, nothing should stand in the way technically of a port to Amiga OS or MorphOS. The 8 megs of source contain the main parts of the code necessary to do a port.

Zeit.de: Programmers from all Lands Unite!
"Programmers from all Lands..." is an overview of the mobilization of the open source movement, a comparison of different ideological perspectives of software development and a short exploration of the problems of software patents. An excerpt follows (with the friendly approval of Zeit.de) and the complete article is reachable under the title link:
For years only geeks got excited about it. They sat, strewn around the globe, at their computers and programmed, criticized, and discussed via the Internet. The rest of the world had no idea what was there in the 'Net: at first glance just some software. Actually the free thinking online community had created an antithesis to Microsoft, the most powerful and largest software house in the world. [...]
