Happy Birthday: Amiga is of age!
21 years ago, the Amiga was born. On July 23, 1985, the multimedia star of the 80's celebrated its premiere in a large celebration in New York Lincoln Center under the presence of personages like Andy Warhol and Debby Harry. So, the Amiga is of full age in the law understanding of its US of American home as well and is allowed to treat itself to its first legal beer. Cheers! (nba) (Translation: cad)

DTP: Pagestream status update
In an email newsletter explains Dan Kilroy from Grasshopper LLC the current status of the DTP application Pagestream:
Haage&Partner are no longer the German distributor for Pagestream. As new partners are the Alinea Gmbh mentioned and another company that is still to be announced. Unfortunately they have no access to the data of users who are registrated at Haage&Partner, these users are called to contact one of the current Pagestream distributors for support and anew registration. They hope to get soon access to the domain pagestream.de registrated by H&P, too.
The online documentation is being reworked step by step, the latest changes can be accessed under Documentation->Recent. Until now the chapters "Getting started", "Lessons" and "Document chapters" are revised, the chapter "Text" is being worked on. The general overhaul of the documentation is about 40% completed.
The online documentation now shows screenshots of the user's preferred operating system. For this you have to set the OS under "My Profile". People who want to contribute screenshots can do so by clicking on any screenshot. On the following page there's the possibility for registered users to upload further versions of this screenshot.
The current beta version of Pagestream will be replaced next week by version 5.0.3.4. Users registered at pagestream.org will be notified automatically via email. New among other things are new keyboard shortcuts, numerous bugfixes, the possibility to edit the changelog of a Pagestream document, some new scripting instructions and some smaller changes within the GUI.

MUI clone: Zune for AFA OS 68k 0.97 beta 1
Bernd Roesch has released an update of his AmigaOS 3-port of the MUI clone Zune. Screenshots of YAM and Simple Mail running on Zune are available at the author's website. Zune requires AFA OS (AROS for Amiga OS), changes since the previous version:
- At the startup of a Zune programme it will check if the stack is large enough (min. 30000 bytes). This way, crashes due to insufficient stack size can be avoided.
- Every Zune programme may now access the prefs programme through the MUI menu, so locale preferences (screenmode, skin, etc.) are possible.
- Zune_prefs was renamed Zune, because it is called that in AROS, too.
- Lamp.mcc is now being modified by the Zune-Installer for Zune.
- newstring.mcc from Aminet is now part of the Zune archive.
- Bugfix: dtpic class (Homebank will start up now)
- In YAM/SimpleMail now active String Gadgets at "window open" will be shown active correctly
- Mui Keys (cursor keys etc.) work now
- Nlist class now supports popup menues
- NListviews work with > 2000 entries (AROS-Fix by Georg Steger)
- Text display on buttons is now correct in JAM1
- Borders of Nlist classes now will be drawn
For the final implementation of all MUI features only three more things are missing now:
- Menu entries will always be displayed as available
- The window coordinates will be remembered at the next opening of the window, but they will not be saved yet.
- Keynotify does not work yet. Programmes likeYAM or SimpleMail use to, for example,. delete an email with the delete key.
The latest sources of Roesch's port are part of the AFA OS archive. (cg) (Translation: iw)

AmigaOne again available in smaller quantities
The French salesman Amont Informatique announces that he had received a "smaller" delivery of AmigaOne motherboards which are to be distributed to salesmen all over the world within a short time.
The delivery obviously contains an unknown amount of AmigaOne-XE motherboards and MicroA1 motherboards which are described as "reconditioned" (remark of the editorial office: reconditioned could mean "as good as new, but used" but also "renewed"). The boards are being tested at the moment, in addition a new delivery of CPU modules is expected.
Apparently G4-CPUs with 1.1 Ghz are to be applied on the above mentioned CPU modules. The producer of the modules is not known, however they are to be distributed separately as well as upgrade option for AmigaOne owners wit G3-CPU.
