Archiv 'Miscellaneous'

`16.Feb.2025` Karpour	Copies of really old (Amiga) websites: archive95.net archive95.net wants to make websites accessible again that are too old even for the Web Archive - the latter only started archiving public sites in 1996. For this purpose, commercial CDs from the years before 1996 are used, on which copies of existing websites were distributed in order to present them to offline customers. Since the "Amiga Plus Extra No. 5/97" is one of the CDs plundered so far, a search for "Amiga" also brings up various interesting hits: fan pages for the A/Box, press releases from Gateway or the old support pages from Newtek.

In it, he reports that he is able to make a living from these two ventures and announces that the Octodapter - an extension that allows up to ten joysticks to be used for appropriately designed games - will definitely be launched on the market this year. As a publisher, he is disappointed with the sales figures for the Amiga 3.2 Reference Manual, with the German edition in particular falling short of expectations. (snx) [News message: 05.
