`14.Jan.2005` Christian Krenner (ANF)	Extreme Amiga 600 Upgrading Page: User-Gallery The "Extreme Amiga 600 Upgrading Page" created by Christian Krenner celebrates its second anniversary and had more than 25,500 visitors. Because of that a user gallery with photos of several upgraded Amiga 600 computers together with its owners has been created. Owners of further upgraded Amiga 600 computers can also add their photos to the gallery. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 14.

`13.Jan.2005` Jörg Brenner (ANF)	Hardware Compendium: Update of Amiga Hardware World Right now at AHW there are over 850 expansions listed for the Amiga, each with its own description, many of them with pictures. The current update includes countless new hardware articles and expanded descriptions and 66 new photos - for example a photo of the floppyport expansion Drive Expander, the SCSI controller Rapidfire, and an early revision of the graphic card Picasso II (many thanks to all those who sent it in!). Beyond that there's now a handbook of the "Apollo 30x0/40x0" CPU cards as well as seven new installation diskettes available for download. A detailed overview of all the current changes to the website may be found here. (cg) (Translation: dm) [News message: 13.

`13.Jan.2005` Amiga.org (Forum)	Amizilla Project: More Prizes for Contributors Announced The winner of the Pyromania/Millennium bundle (amiga-news.de reported) is Peter Halin, whose donation was the first to put the reward for the browser port over the 9,000 U.S. dollar mark. The current amount is now 9,217 dollars. Similarly obtaining a Pyromania/Millennium software bundle from DiscreetFX are Darren O'Leary and Mark Bond, whose donation followed right after that of Peter Halin. Furthermore, DiscreetFX promises everybody who donates after Peter Halin and on the way to the 10,000 dollar mark the same software bundle, should the 10,000 figure be reached by the end of this month.

`08.Jan.2005` Holger Krefting (ANF)	Tales of Tamar: 3D drivers for Radeon cards anyone? Martin Wolf from the Tales of Tamar team is searching for a 3D driver for Radeon cards to develop this medieval MMP fantasy RPG played via e-mail further. He wrote: "This is a call for help to all developers in the Amiga market! For the time being our developers are among other things busy with the realization of a 3D map for the Amiga. Under the title link you can have a look at some of the first screenshots of an early Amiga beta version that is being developed for now on an Amiga 4000/040 with Cybervision 64/3D. Though we own some Pegasos computers with Radeon cards there does not seem to exist a 3D driver yet for this system that is made available to developers. It's for sure that an Amiga 4000/040 is to slow to develop a good 3D map on it. So our question is: Is there a 3D driver for Radeon cards? Is anybody right now developing a 3D driver for Radeon cards? And if such a person exists: would this person possibly be willing to put it at our disposal for the development of the "Tales of Tamar" 3D map for the Amiga or Pegasos? (Alternatively we would be ready to distribute the driver via Eternity if such an interest should exist.) At this time the card is fully functional only under WinUAE with Warp3D emulation or via software renderer. Systems with Voodoo or Permedia2 cards we do not own."

`08.Jan.2005`	New poll: Which operating system is your workhorse? In our last poll we asked you about your judgement of the Amiga's future and wether you would perhaps be ready to invest once more in an "Amiga" (respectively a clone). The results of this poll can be found here. In our current poll (title link) we are interested in the operating system you are using privately most: AmigaOS 3 on a real Amiga AmigaOS 3 on an emulator AmigaOS 4 MorphOS AROS A combination of 1-5, e.g. OS4 or MorphOS at home, OS3 on a laptop or at work One of the systems named under 1-5 in conjunction with another system (Windows, Mac OS, Linux...) The OS I use most has nothing to do with the Amiga (Windows, Mac OS, Linux...) The actual result can be found here, while we explicitly point out that the results aren't representative in any way.
