the Skin support for the playlist, switchable solutions for the Analyser and a better
handling of Plugins and Skins. Have Fun! If you find bugs, and I'm sure they are still
numerous, please report to me!

Sid4Amiga version 3
After author Paul Heams has lost all source codes for his C64 Sidplayer due to a
physical failure of his hard drive, he sat down and restarted with the original
code from the Linuxpage, showing once again the importance of backups ;-).
After all, the new Sidplayer is faster, has some bugs removed, and
the AHI play routines are now functional. The author further writes that he
nevertheless has much work left to do, since he also has to rewrite the complete GUI.

Is the Microsoft Console coming?
Spiegel Netzwelt writes:
According to rumors, Microsoft is currently working on its own game console, which is
reported to be similar powerful than Sonys announced PlayStation 2.
The software company Microsoft is reportedly working on a game console
code-named "X-Box". The TV expansion is meant mainly for games, but could have other
functionality, too, reported US game magazine Next
Generation in its October issue, citing unnamed sources.
According to this article, the console will either run on a 500 MHz chip by
Intel or an Athlon chip by AMD, with gfx technology provided by nVidia. As operating system,
a modified version of Microsoft's Portable-System Windows CE will be employed. With
this setup, the Microsoft console might be comparable in performance to Sonys announced
Playstation 2, the article sais. As manufacturer for the Microsoft-designed console,
Dell and Gateway might be possible partners. (Full article - German - at the title link).

Siberian Sun MP3s
Markus 'Atroxis' Holler (Freelance Composer) writes:
On my homepage (title link), in the music section there are two songs from the
realtime strategy game Siberian Sun
for download as MP3. Both songs have been used in the presentation of the game on
AmigaFormat #44, probably a goodie for those who don't have the CD (even while they
cannot watch the accompaining trailer... ;).

Iwin has two customers ;-)
Read in awe, the news platform of Iwin - .AmiUpdate, which by the way appeared like
Phoenix at the same time as Iwin - announces that Iwin has created a new section
on their website. And what does the interested surfer find: Iwin customers :-).
Probably nobody is surprised by now that the customers don't have an eMail address,
let alone a website.
