Amiga Arena: Full version + source code of DBase V3.4
In co-operation with "David Ekholm" Amiga Arena publishes the final
version of DBase 3.4 with the free available source code.
DBase is a little but fast database.
The source code has been created under the SAS compiler (6.xx).
After "ArtPro" and "Aual Illusion" it is another program on the site
of Amiga Arena which is available for free development.
You can get more information in the download archive or by "David Ekholm" (david-ek@dsv.su.se).
Download:

amiga.org: Hyperion-Chat (AmigaExpo 2002) (Update)
The Amiga Expo 2002 Hyperion chat is now available for download!
Download: Amiga-Expo-2002-hyperion.mp3 (5,5 MB)
Some interesting snippets of information, posted by SlimJim:
- Screenshots of Amiga OS 4.0 will be published in the first part of April.
- Magic Menu and Birdie (among others) will be seamlessly integrated into the OS 4.0 interface.
- The new OS 4.0 GUI will look quite different (i.e it will not just look like a fast OS 3.9).
- Opus Magellan 2 has been licensed for OS 4.0 (details unknown).
- For the moment, the new printer system is not due to arrive until Boingbag/OS 4.1.
- The _latest_ MUI source code will be used (there was a question about this)
- IBrowse2.3 will be quite some beast. It will be enhanced
for OS4.0. Not just some Aminet update. It will still miss
some features of Netscape/IE though. There is not time to
fix all to OS4.0. Flash is planned to be implemented. IB
will be _much_ more stable than it is now.
- The guy that did the Warp-datatypes seems to be doing the
new PPC-datatypes.
- The datatype system as a whole is to get a complete overhaul later.
There is not enough time to do that to initial release.
- An office suit (Open office if I remember correctly)
is being worked on. This is a 'high priority' for inclusion.
(although it was not clear to me if it would be shipped initially)
- The development of software -independent of company size-
is difficult to predict. But Mr. Hermans seems quite
confident of an end-user release in May.
Update 02.04.2002:
Here a largher transscript from
amiga.org.

AmigaOSXL: Experiences with the H&P Big-Tower 1800+ (Update)
Dietmar Knoll:
In my report I describe the experiences I have made with the
Big-Tower. The eighth update includes some changes, that I
describe on the top of the page. I have re-arranged, corrected and
updated some parts. Further, I have extended the comments on BoingBag2
once again.
Next, I will re-write the chapter about "Patches for Amithlon".
If you look closely, you will find a little Easter egg, btw.
In other words: Happy Easter! ;-) (ps)

New C64 Commodore One
According to the internetradio broadcast from the Amiga Expo in Baltimore, there might arrive a successor of the C64 this year to market, the Commodore One.
Different to former "successors", which were in truth only common 486 pcs with an C64 emulation, this one will be a completley new design, as most as possible compatible to the C64. Interesting is that, different than the Aone, this will use custonchips again.
For sound there is "Monstersid", the grafics will be done from
"super vic" with a maximun resolution of 1280x1024.

CD32 & CDTV Emulator Akiko (for Windows) Version 1.5
Akiko 1.5, the CD32 & CDTV emulator for Windows was just released
on the Airsoft Softwair homepage.
This version is a major update with many new features and cool improvements:
For example it's now possible to boot CD32 & CDTV games directly
from their ISO image or from a folder on your harddisk. Additionally
you can put the audio tracks as MP3s on your harddisk and Akiko will
use and play them also (so you can also replace the music with your
favorite soundtracks!). Finally Akiko supports some new CD32 & CDTV
games and some fixes were done (concerning CD audio and Joypad emulation).
And I removed the code protections for Speris Legacy, Worms and
Alien Breed 3D because they are no longer necessary these days and
so they only nerv the users. Akiko 1.5 can now be downloaded from
the Airsoft Softwair web page (title link). (ps)

Amiga Future Website Changes to PHP
Today the Amiga Future homepage was changed to PHP. Some browsers don't seem to notice that, loading some pages in the cache, which causes them to be falsely displayed.
Should this happen to you, try reloading the page. If that doesn't help, send an email to Andreas Magerl.
