Nursery School ?
As I learned the IRC conferences organized by UGN and conducted by the Amiga-Club didn't went off as without a hitch as I said in my show report. Script-kiddies didn't have better things to do as to flood the channel with multilating scripts, so some of the panned IRC conferences had be interrupted or could not take place, at all. UGN was already thinking of never again to organize conferences from shows.

To people not able to attend a show the IRC conferences always were an appreciated possibility to get actual information, and most of all the only opportunity to address their questions directly to the VIP's of the branch.

Therefore I appeal to the scrip-kiddies to grow up at last and to stop their nursery school behavior.

Free Advertising Banners at Amiga-Community.net
Amiga-Community.net Christmas special: Free advertising banners on the main page without link! (Editor's note: An advertising banner without link might be pretty useless.) Send your logo (max. 120x120) to xandiy@web.de.

All of the logos sent in up to 12-23-2000 will be put on the site. The logos will appear rotatory where at this time the pictures of the WoA2000 are shown. It would have to be a pretty definite logo, cause there will be no linking! This action will start if enough logos will be there and will last until 01-06-2001 incl..

2IDs GRAFIX DESIGN MUSIX and more


Flash version finished of the gallery "The man as subject of art"
Well, now it is the time, at last: also the flash version today did the jump to the net. Beseide of the HTML version now the optically more extended pages, but of same content, are online. Under the title link all of the render-workes / grafix-people and artists are invited to exhibit their art works. Of course copyright will stay with the relative artis.

Subject of the pictures is "THE MAN AS SUBJECT OF ART".
We are looking forward to your contributions. So, get to your AMIGA or PC or even MAC and start creatively. Let the artists know what you think about their art work, and use our guest book to do so.

With Amiga to the Diploma
By this I would like to officially thank everybody who guided and supported my during my studies to become a graduate engineer for media technics. To everybody who suffered from my lack of time I would like to say thank you for your understanding.

As my final year project substantially deals with Amiga I would not withdraw it from the public. It is available for download on my homepage (German):

un-archived as pdf file(1,8 MB)
lha archived (1,2 MB)

The subject of the project is:
Conception and implementation of an automated control for a monitor-wall under technical and marketing political aspects. Automation bases on an ARexx script controlling several applications running non an Amiga 1200. For creation of software my special thanks go to:

Rico Schreckenbach
Stefan Robl
Karlheinz Marks
Stefan Steppat

To continue this project placing of some hardware for MPEG video display would be necessary. As e.g. the related module for the CD32 isn't available any more, for this new projects as like as Mediator might be addressed as a solution.

With this technic and our software an arrangement could be designed and delivered that would be unique in the event branch.

- runs stable and reliable
- optimized software
- well-priced hardware
- easy editing
- arbitrary expandable

With this the most efficient and moreover cheapest device of it's kind would be created. Well now, dear hardware developers: don't let them detain or discourage you. THANK YOU.

Think-pad without Crusoe
IBM will not bring note-books with the Crusoe processor by Transmeta to the market. On detailed reasons the company keeps silent.

The official statement from IBM said the processor would not fit to the current marketing concept. The decision not to equip think-pads with this processor is a bad blow for Transmeta. An unfavourable timing, because from November the company's shares shall be deald in Nasdaq. Senior analyser Peter Glaskowsky from Microdesign Resources assumes that IBM wouldn't like to use the processor due to the bad performance. Testings with Sony note-books would have turned out that a Crusoe processor 700MHz would not be faster than an Pentium 233MHz, Glaskowsky added.

AROS News
In December again a number of things happened at AROS. Stefan Berger did a complete rewrite of the layers.library, hence it is much faster, but easier than the old one. Georg Steger contributed further files for ReqTools, and Adam Chodorowski started working on the workbench.library. Johan Alfredsson has enhanced the ReqTools file requester, and the drive requester now works. A PS/2 Mouse.HIDD was added by Michael Schulz. More details are to find under the title link.

boeder - no salvation at sight
Some still remember this company from old Amiga days (disks, joysticks, a.m.m.). The "Computer Partner 43/00" wrote, that the company already in October made application for insolvency. Negotiations for takeover failed, so the company faces the off. At the time being the Vivanco AG only is interested in the name, but even this only if the price is right. Insolvency procedures are planned to be started between December, 15th and 20th.
