Linux-compatible 64Bit-operating system K42 from IBM for PPC
K42 is a operating-system research project (available under LGPL) focused
in large part on scalability in the implementation of core OS services.
We will give a brief overview of the project, discuss some of the recent
performance results running 64-bit PPC Linux binaries and discuss the
major ways that our implementation of Linux services depart from the norm
(hopefully making sure to bring up all the truly offensive and contentious
ways).

AmiWest 2003: Pegasos flies westwards
Yes! Pegasos is flying west, and for the first time at a
major
American Amiga show, the Pegasos will be available for users to get a first
hand look at what MorphOS on the Pegasos is all about. With at least
five Pegasos computers at the Genesi booth, everyone can be assured a
turn at taking a Pegasos out for a test flight.
At the 2003 version of AmiWest, YOU can get YOUR hands on the Pegasos,
a tangable successor to our community's platform of choice. See
first
hand the MUI3.9 PPC integration into your OS experience, feel the power
of a PPC processor pushing both classic and new applications, and
experience the transformation in our community. You've seen the forums, read
the contriversies, and watched the flak fly. At AmiWest, however, there
will be no smokescreen thick enough to come between your curiosity and
the Pegasos running MorphOS. See the PEGASOS first hand at AmiWest.
Just in: MorphOS 1.4 with the Trance JIT for MorphOS will be released
in time for AmiWest!

'OS4.0 on Tour': Thanks to AC Augsburg
We hereby want to express our thanks to the Amiga Club Augsburg and its many
helpers for the warm welcome in Augsburg on the occasion of the 'OS4.0 on Tour'
event. Everything was prepared excellently and with much idealism (e.g. the
Amiga museum) and also carried out with great commitment. It is good to see and
to know that there are still many friends of the computer legend 'Amiga' and many
users waiting for OS4.0 to hit the market to be used on an AmigaOne or a
Cyberstorm/Blizzard PPC board.

Motorola: The Handy Turns 20
The mobile telephone has turned 20 years old. Since the 1983 introduction of the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X, the cellphone has turned from the prestigious posession of executives to the constantly present tool for everyman. Few other inventions have changed life so much in the last two decades.
Note from translator: the article goes on into a long German language history of the cellphone. If desired, you may copy the address of the amiga-news.de German language article (http://www.amiganews.de/de/news/AN-2003-06-00096-DE.html) into an automatic translation service, such as that found at http://www.altavista.com by clicking on the "translate" link.

ELektroniknet: How costless is Linux?
»The experience of an independant software developer
A little bit costless? Or not free at all? During a Linux project there arrive many obstacles which are invisible in
the beginning.
This lesson an independent software developer had to experience personally.«
Here are some extracts from the article which is readable by the title link (German):
- "I just finished to install embedded Linux on a PowerPC system; That opend my eyes. [...]"
- "After some months our hardware was stable, our Linux port too and the application was more or less ready to use [...]"
- "Is embedded Linux the potential to grow? Sure at least. Is it really costless? No way. [...]"
- "Embedded Linux is real, it's capable to grow but it is not gratis.
It is easy to get attracted by embedded Linux but then you will soon find yourself within the operating system support
business rather than in the application development. Would I chose Linux again? Yes I would but this time with a seeing eye from the start.
