    The Register: Gateway pulls out of UK and Ireland 
As already reported for several times, the American PC manufacturer Gateway - who
obtained AMIGA in 1997 and  sold it again in late 1999 - this year is deep in the red.
After the closing of 27 US stores and the announcement to close their German offices, now
the closing of their European headquarter in Dublin as well as their English office
was confirmed, too. Only for Ireland and England 1,200 people will loose their jobs.

    Golem: News from the Bitboys - XBA about to outplay GeForce3 
»Extreme bandwith due to embedded DRAM within the graphics chip 
Since 1998 the Finnish graphics chip manufactures Bitboys are working on
their Xtreme Bandwith Architecture (XBA), a memory architecture embedding
fast eDRAM directly into the graphics chip and thus is said to offer
noticeable higher bandwith than GeForce3 and similar. Now the Finns have
released some new information: Their upcoming "wonder graphics chip" now will
have integrated 12 MB instead of 9 MB eDRAM and additionally will be capable
to address up to 64 MB external SDRAM.

    AMI Sector One: Update with additional games 
Bernd Gmeineder wrote: 
'Paradox Software' and 'Hartwerk' are two more companies allowing us to
make their software available for free at AMI Sector One. Some of the
games and applications, which now can be legally downloaded, are 'ST-Protector',
'War Zone', and the translation software 'Translate It'. Beside of these there
is also Ed Scio's futuristic flight simulation 'Armour-Geddon'. Various interesting
public domain games and new Emerald Mine clones round out this little update.

    Domain amiga-center.de to give away 
For some months now the domain amiga-center.de lies fallow. I don't need it
anymore, and I'm now looking for a new non-commercial user. A permission for
such a non-commercial use was given by Amiga Inc. but would have to be renewed
with a change of the owner and the service.

    Alan Redhouse (Eyetech UK) comments AmigaOne, OS4-PPC and Amithlon 
»Well apart from unduly cluttering up the AmigaOne mailing list I think
Gary has handled the points raised admirably. Of course a large proportion of
posters appear to have completely ignored his answers and have started
indulging in even greater realms of virtual computing fantasy. I dont
really see it as a particularly good use of my time or the lists bandwith
to comment until the party atmosphere has died down a little.

    Emulator: UAE 0.8.17 (beta) released 
Beta/Development versions of UAE will be available here, as
soon as there are any changes to the code. The current stable
versions are numbered 0.7.x, while the next beta versions of
UAE will be numbered 0.8.x; and finally 0.9.0 once it's stable
again. Previously, the idea was to have a stable version 0.x.0
and beta versions 0.x.y, for y > 0. That didn't work very well:
all versions that appeared in public were rather stable, while the
beta versions mostly remained in a private directory. We'll try a
different model now and see how it works out. You can also check
out the ChangeLog of the latest version here.

Again is the Stardate during a strong storm affected by a flash of lightning.
In the exchange my port only works for two hours then the Telekom has to reset
the whole router. Again has expensive equipment to be exchanged. I was told that I shouldn't count on this until next week.
