`15.Jan.2003` M.Schwarz (ANF)	Former Metabox Executive Stefan Domeyer accused Stefan Domeyer former executive of the Met@box AG has been accused last week by the public prosecutors of Hannover because of stock excange course manipulation. Full article (German) see title link. The set top box producer gained some interested within the Amiga community due to its announcement of a processor card for the A1200 in November 1999. Because of the unclear business methods Metabox reached the headlines several times in 2001. Met@box AG has been founded on May the 15th 1996 with the name PIOS Computer AG by Amiga-Commodore developer engeneers (Dave Haynie, Andy Finkel) and former managers of Amiga Technologies (Stefan Domeyer).

`14.Jan.2003` Jens Schönfeld (ANF)	Individual Computers: New year, new drivers, new prices Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper is not only a PCI-card, it can also be used in an Amiga. The first SID-driver has now been released for AmigaOS: Stefan Haubenthal has written a 6581sid.library for common C64 emulators like Frodo or MagiC64. Download: 6581sid.lha - 1442 Bytes Unfortunately, the new year also brings bad news: Higher taxes, higher energy cost and higher wages at our contractors force us to increase some prices for the first time in the nearly nine-year old history of the company. This mainly affects the new products. On the other hand, we will decrease prices for the existing inventory. The new pricelist is valid from February 1st, 2003. Prices at your local reseller may be different from the prices listed here, especially because of differen VAT rates in the European countries. Prices listed here include the German VAT of 16%. Price lists published previously become invalid with the publication of this list. Buddha Flash IDE controller 49,90 EUR Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper 89,90 EUR Catweasel Z-II (incl. Buddha) 74,90 EUR Catweasel ISA (PC-Version) 39,90 EUR Gemini SCMS-killer (opto in) 149,00 EUR Gemini SCMS-killer (coax in) 99,00 EUR Graffiti Videocard 19,00 EUR IDE-fix Express upgrade A1200 24,90 EUR IDE-fix Adapter A4000 14,90 EUR ISDN-Surfer w/o OVP 59,90 EUR ISDN-Surfer w/ OVP 79,90 EUR Silversurfer 29,90 EUR Silversurfer limited Edition 34,90 EUR A600 adapter for Silversurfer 9,90 EUR X-Surf 2 ethernet 89,90 EUR Lyra keyboard adapter 29,90 EUR VarIO (Zorro/26-pin version) 49,00 EUR VarIO (A1200 version) 59,00 EUR PCI POST code display 39,90 EUR Indivision Flickerfixer 99,00 EUR Retro Replay 50,00 EUR Retro Replay incl.

We're currently considering production outside Germany to keep the target price of 189,- EUR for the Delfina soundcard. Something funny at the end: Individual Computers is being massively attacked by viruses in the past few weeks. Up to eight emails containing a virus arrive every day. The amusing part about this is that it's viruses that only spread through Windows and Outlook. Those who want to harm us should know that we're not using sub-standard software, and attacks like this are simply ineffectual. (ps) [News message: 14.

`13.Jan.2003` Jürgen Schmitz (E-Mail)	Amiga Inc.: AmigaOS4 Feature Set: Release 1 January 13, 2003 - Snoqualmie, WA Amiga is pleased to publish this first version of the feature set of the up and coming AmigaOS4.0. The document will undergo revision in subsequent issues but because of the massive demand for information made by the public, we have decided to release it in its current state. Due to the large amount of work and the obvious technical nature of OS development, the document is both considerable in size, laden with jargon and, to save download time, diagrams have not been included. For those using older Amiga based PDF viewers, there may be a few minor issues with displaying the front page graphics but this is due to issues with these viewers. On official PDF viewers, and on the new AmigaOS4.0 viewer, the document is rendered true. Amiga would like to thank both those in the AmigaOS4.0 project team, who have worked on this project with passion and commitment and those who have patiently waited for their favourite platform to bloom once again. It has been a huge undertaking and no one company, entity or person can take the credit. It has been a fantastic demonstration of what makes the Amiga platform so special, the coming together of like minds to build something extraordinary. AmigaOS4.0. The legend continues.
