Exhibition Flyer now in - Inexpensive travel arrangements
The Flyer for the Neuss exhibition is now in. The article concerning the
inexpensive travel arrangements especially caught our eye.
For 7 Marks to the Exhibition and back
As a train rider you have the least expensive option to come to the World of
Alternatives in Neuss. The Deutsche Bahn has a Weekend ticket for 35DM. With
this ticket you can travel all throughout Germany on regional trains without
a mileage limit. This ticket has the following restrictions:
It is valid from 12:00 AM to 3:00AM the following day on either Saturday or
Sunday. Up to 5 people can ride on on single ticket. This makes this the
cheapest way to get to the convention. More infos concerning this ticket at
Deutsche Bahn

X-Surf Samba Install CD is done
Just in time for the convention the Samba-Install CD for the X-Surf
ethernet card is finished. On the Amiga side everything is automatic, so
there is no need to deal with complicated configuration files. A few clicks
and you can access harddrives and printers in the network. For Amiga-Freaks
that don`t care for Samba, NetFS will also be automatically installed. No
editing of configuration files. The access performance of amiga-amiga is a bit
higher. For the PC there isn`t a simple method of automation, but a HTML
installation guide includes screenshots of all the important settings.
The CD will be given to all X-Surf customers for free that are able to show
the original bill of sale. Those that aren`t able to be in Neuss will have
to order it from thier retailer. There are not any plans to distribute the
CD without a customer order. Since the CD only contains 5.5 MB data, it will
most probably be available on the internet after the convention. However it
will be a while, since everything is in German and many of the users would
not be able to benefit from it.

VWP News: AudioCutter Cinema Preview v0.6 for Linux
At the title link, under "ACutter", the audio and sound processing software
"AudioCutter Cinema" is now avail- and downloadable not only in the Windows
version, but also in versions for 80x86 and PPC Linux. I am sorry that the
PPC version is in a somewhat more experimental state, since there are driver
problems with the testing system. The BeOS version is delayed until further
notice, since the BeKaffe Page
still has not gone online again, and BeKaffe is therefore unavailable for
the time being.
