Event: WOASE - You are not going to believe this!
Typical, you wait ages and then you get new games to buy all at once.

With only one week to go to, we have the pleasure to announce that there will be THREE new Amiga games releases for you to buy at the World of Amiga Southeast Show 2002.

(In alphabetical order)

Quake II. - Hyperion-Entertainment/ID Software.
A game that needs no introduction. Yes! Not only will you be able to play QUAKE II at WOASE on the Amiga Area, but thanks to some nifty work by the guys at Hyperion, you will be able to buy it as well! Copies are being sent by special courier from Germany to the UK, in time for the show! Be amongst the first to own Quake II on the Amiga.

Software Tycoon - Epic Interactive.
It's 1982. Small computer games companies are springing up in the bedrooms around the world. A new business beckons, where everything is in your hands. You have total control, from creating the original concept, through hiring staff and packaging design, to the development of massive marketing campaigns. Do you have the skills to create and use new technologies and become a Software Tycoon?

Tales of Tamar - Eternity Software.
An Internet based roundgame for various computing platforms. You live in a world far away from our civilization, comparable to the Middle Ages. In this world there exists man, dwarves, dragons, and a lot of other races. There is magic, there are druids and dungeons. You can fight, trade, investigate, build cities, raise taxes and make peace contracts. Your aim is to reign your empire and to survive against other opponents.

Just one week to go! - Get your credit cards ready!

More details on presentation times coming very soon. (ps)

Event: Amiga + Retro Computing 2002 - Website now also in English
All parts of the page are now available in English as well. Small changes have been done to the website design, and a free hotel booking service has been added.

AMIGA + RETRO COMPUTING 2002 takes place on December 7th and 8th, 2002 at the Eurogress Aachen, Germany.

The main focus of the show will be on Amiga-related products. The biggest highlights will surely be the new mainboards "Amiga One" and "Pegasos". The title "Retro Computing" does not mean that this is a nostalgia meeting or even a fleamarket for old computers. Just the opposite. The exhibitors will show that the technologies of the home computers of the 80s are still improved today, and that they're still available as new products in the 21st century. With AmigaOne and AmigaOS 4 on the one side, and Pegasos with MorphOS on the other side, the Amiga - multimedia wonderbox of the late 80s - is ready for a comeback with high-performance PowerPC processors. The "Digital Enviroment" of Amiga Inc. (USA) allows using adapted software on multiple mobile and home-based devices like desktop computers, mobile phones or personal digital assistants (so-called palmtops). This makes Amiga-technology perfectly suited for the future.

Probably the most interesting product from the Retro Computing area is the Commodore One (Codename: C-One). Developer Jeri Ellsworth is working on the ATX-sized motherboard for nearly two years now. As the name already suggests, it's the inofficial successor of the legendary C-64 by Commodore. Exchangable CPU modules can turn this board into nearly any computer of the 80s, among them is also the well-known Atari 2600 console that became famous in Germany with the game Pac-Man. After big German magazines like Focus and Computerbild Spiele wrote about the project, it's first presented and sold in Europe at AMIGA + RETRO COMPUTING 2002. We're especially happy that Jeri Ellsworth is making the long trip from USA to Germany to present the board in person.

The name Atari is closely tied to the computers of the 80s. Developers are still active today; The magazine ST-Computer and developers of the prestige products Calamus, Papyrus or Eclipse will surely be in Aachen, where visitors can also gather information about the exciting Coldfire project that wants to accelerate old Atari ST computers with a powerful processor.

Chaos Computer Club e.V.


Meeting: With the Hack Train to the 19th Chaos Communication Congress

Chaos Computer Club meets annually between Christmas and New Year's at the Chaos Communication Congress. The 19th CCC (19C3) occurs from 27th to 29th December, 2002 in Berlin, Germany at the House at Köllnischen Park. The Hack Train to Congress starts the morning of 26th December, 2002 in Mainz, comes up along the Rhein, through the Ruhr, and reaches Berlin. The return trip is on the 30th. The whole thing is only going to happen however, when 200 people sign up (85 euros round trip). On that account, everyone who wants to come is asked to sign up (non-binding) at http://zug.verbrennung.org. The deadline is the first week in November!

The train from the RHEB comes through Mainz - Köln - Düsseldorf - Bochum - Bielefeld - Hannover - Berlin, and will consist of two cars with about 100 seats. Further stops along the way are no problem, just say so in advance.

The Chaos Communication Congress is a three day congress about technology, society and Utopia. The congress offers lectures and workshops on a range of topics concerning Information Technology, computer security, Internet, Cryptography, and the critically creative handling with technology, and discourse over the effects of technological development on society.
