ACT: FAQ on Sponsoring Stop
- The domain names will not be canceled for the time being, but either will be released exempt from charges to the
sponsoring receivers or will be sold in early/middle 2001.
- I beg you to refrain from offering adoption of certain sites to me via e-mail. Contact persons are the web masters.
Since the domains will not be canceled, the web space could be hosted "anywhere". I would like to care for DNS changes.
- Our partners, and ourselves of course will continue to host sites at our usual conditions, if desired by the web masters.
It just doesn't match our future business plans to operate this special area for free.

FUBAR - New War Simulation
The new game "FUBAR" by Rosande Ltd. is distributed by Blittersoft and will probably be released in November 2000.
But it can be ordered in advance in the shops from now on!
At Q-Lab you can buy a cd with musics of FUBAR.
FUBAR is a war simulation. The scenario of the game shows you what happens if a war begins, and forces you
as the player to take all necessary steps to finish the war. The conception of the game is to rule the
whole world, all countries, and all people. To be successful you can slip into different roles, because
ruling the world is not an easy task.
You will be the general of thousands of armies, the president of the whole mankind, but in addition the
leading scientist, manager, diplomat, and banker. Each of this roles is in touch with the military, civilians,
research, financial world, and has got connections to other competitors who are striking for the same goal as you do.

The very extensive John-Sinclair-Encyclopedia by Bastei dealing with the most successful series of horror stories

In addition the CD-ROM offers the radio-book "Daemonenhochzeit" for listening as mp3 file, a composed version of the JS-Comic,
short texts for each novel, pictures of the title of the magazins, and of the paperbacks, and much much more.
You can order the CD-ROM at the title link in the seperate Online-Shop.

Heise: Initiative Bill against Internet-Patents in the USA
Howard Berman and Rick Boucher, two congressmen of the democrats, have introduced an initiative bill which
is supposed to restrict the possibility to patent business methods in the USA.
Above all the Business Method Patent Improvement Act addresses the rapidly increasing use of
patents for business methods.
Crucial point of the act is the declarative statement, that implementation of so called "Real-World"-business processes
on computers does not worthy being patented.
In addition the representatives want to establish the possibility of raising an objection against patents without being
forced to bring such action at law. See titlelink for full article (German).

Heise: Microsoft Aquires 25 Percent of Corel
«By a 135 million USD investment, Microsoft supports the stumbling Canadian
software manufacturer Corel. As Corel announced on Monday, the
software giant from Redmond purchased 24 million non-voting shares at
5.625 USD each. Those can be converted into fully voting shares;
holding almost 25 percent of the entire capital stock would make Microsoft one
of the largest shareholder of Corel.»

Modification of Hypercom 3plus Module (Goldsurfer) for IOBlix Emulation Mode
The new Hypercom software (v2.96+) can emulate the IOBlix parallel ports, so parallel-port
scanners and ZIP-drives can be used with the Hypercom. The Hypercom Zorro cards are already
primed for this, however the modules for the A1200, Buddha, Catweasel and the X-Surf
(also sold as "Goldsurfer) need a minor technical modification. At the title link,
you will find a detailed technical description including pictures.
