Modify Logitech mouse for Amiga mouseport
Andreas Frank writes:
I have written a short tutorial how to modify the great Logitech Pilot mouse to fit directly
into the Amiga mouseport, without additional hardware or drivers.
You can download the tutorial from the title link (not very nice so far, but it's
a beginning).

AmigaNation server breakdown
Michael Jaccoud writes:
Today, December 1st, at about 4:00 PM, our server suffered from technical breakdown (Y2K bug?).
All major protocols are affected (FTP, Mail, HTTP), so the site is unavailable for now. We
hope that AmigaNation will be online again by noon, December 2nd.
Mails being send to us on December 1st are lost, so please try again...

The Last Patriot website reworked
Some very well rendered graphics can be seen there now. In the future the game is
intended to use the Warp3D system. Sadly the group has no PowerPC card right now,
so work on the game is put on hold for now.
Work is continuing on the game Pimpin' Ain't Easy. Parts of the new
engine are already finished. It works with system friendly routines.

PNG and Amiga
The book "PNG - The Definite Guide", by Greg Roelofs, O'Reilly, ISBN 1-56592-542-4,
mentions the Amiga positively for a change:
Especially considering PNG, it is very easy to support new file formats
in Amiga browsers by using Datatypes... to briefly cite the book (p.36):
"On the Amiga, it is ubiquitous, thanks to a technological marvel, known
as datatypes, (a kind of super-DLL that, among other things, provides generic image
support); but under operating systems like BeOS or Atari TOS, it is virtually nonexistent."
Of course this leads to Amiga WWW browsers and a collection of Amiga tools
and applications get very good comments (some from myself, too ;) The book is also very
open towards other alternative platforms (Acorn, BeOS, Macintosh, NextStep, OS/2).
Bottom line: worth reading.

Many requests for Melody-Z2
We thank the users for the big interest in Melody-Z2, and the companies Rüdiger
Gruner Bürotechnik and DCE for the quick, uncomplicated revival:
There was only a minimum number of Melody-Z2 sitting on the shelves half
assembled. These cards were gone some hours after the announcement. This was unsatisfactory
for Katodev. The cooperation of Katodev, Gruner and DCE now makes it possible to initiate
a small production run. Special thanks goes to DCE. Save the expansion port, the card is
identical to the one offered until one year ago.
If your order was declined, ignore it for the time being. sales@katodev.de
should contact you explaining the additional availability. After this, however, Melody-Z2
is done for sure. The MPEG1-DSP used (layer 1+2) is no longer available. Melody1200Plus
(only this option, because of the same DSP being used) is also running out of production.
We want to warn, however, not to see Melody-Z2 as a replacement for the
Melody1200-series. Melody-Z2 was intended as Paula replacement (plus MP2 hardware interesting
back then). Melody1200 is much better from both a functional and quality point of view.
We recommend preferring the Unity+Melody1200xxx solution, in the very least compare them.
Colored technical readouts (PDF) can be found in the Docs area on our homepage.
More information can be ordered from sales@katodev.de.
