Order of ISDN-surfer including VMCISDN in advance only available from VMC!
Harald Frank wrote:
As opposed to prior advertisements by Vesalia the new ISDN-card ISDN-Surfer is
only available by order in advance from VMC. Owners or advance orderers of the VMCISDN-software/ISDN-
Blaster will get a good upgrade offer from us.
If you are already offered this card by your dealer, that offer is unreliable. The
first one to know when this product will be finished are we who develop its software
and have produced every Amiga ISDN-card, from the ISDN-master-I/II to the ISDN-Blaster-Z2.
The reason that you can buy the card firstly only from VMC are the very high development
costs for the software. In this time we are working day and night for new software
updates of our products and some new great products. Priority has the VMCISDN-software
that is used from Jens Schönfeld under licence for his ISDN-Surfer card.
In the next days we will celebrate the VMC-powerdays where we will present every day
an update or a new product on our homepages.

New MUIbase version 1.5
Since the fair in Neuss, Germany, the version 1.5 of MUIbase is available. Due to
minor problems with our website the "placing-in-the-net" of MUIBase was a little
bit delayed. At the fair were Steffen Gutmann (author) and me (webmaster) present
and felt well for the two days in the Amiga-community :-).
Download: MUIbase-1.5.lha.

Alive Mediasoft 15th June 2000
As from today, the following changes are effective:
1. Alive mediasoft is closing it's Amiga retail company with no future plans
to sell software or hardware in the Amiga market.
2. Alive mediasoft will no longer publish games for the Amiga market either.
Current copyright ownerships are being discussed with individual developers
to arrange possible transfer of publishing rights so that the games can
continue to made available to the Amiga public via a third party if the
developer so wishes. News about individual titles will be announced as we
have it.
3. Ongoing development of games like Elite 3 and Phantasmagoria are again
being worked out with the authors/owners so hopefully we can arrange
continuation of these exciting projects so they do not get dropped out of
sight. We have had a phenomenal response about our ventures and give our
word to everyone who was anxiously waiting for the release of these games
that we are doing everything in our power to ensure that we find someone to
continue our work.
4. As issue 13 of The Pulse has only been out a few weeks, orders are still
pouring in and we'd like to assure everybody that we're not going anywhere
immediately as there's a lot of work to be done in fulfilling current
orders and pre-orders for our customers, and see that everyone including
customers and developers working for us on royalty basis are sorted
out prior to the final closure of the retail company.
Anyone with outstanding orders will receive their goods during the next
few weeks. Any items out of stock or that were pre-orders for games due out
shortly will be contacted individually.
As there is obviously much work to be done
our phone lines are often busy or on answer machine. We can
still be contacted as normal via post or email.
But the news is not all bad....
With the assistance from a third party, Alive's flagship publication
THE PULSE is to be become it's own entity and be published as a fully
commercial magazine.
We have so many great things lined up for the future issues including the
games we have exclusives on and the other Amiga companies involved
in backing The Pulse that I would love to ramble on about,
but I should tell you in detail in another mail.
A further press release will be issued separately by The Pulse very shortly
providing full details of the exciting plans lined up for the launch of
issue 14.
We would like to thank everyone who bought games from the Alive retail
company for their support and dedication over the years, and
say to you not to worry as you're not going to lose out on your games
chioce as we've secured some great deals within
the trade to ensure that you don't lose the variety we offered. Watch this
space for details....
THANKYOU
Steven Flowers

AROS-ML

AROS Status Update
Again a another software was ported to AROS: the freetype.library
(www.freetype.org), BGUI and SnoopDOS.
The port of DOpus is getting more and more usefull, too. Many bugs of the
gfx.HIDD have been fixed, and there is allready a version of the cybergraphx.library running.
The first version of the x86 native IDE driver has been released. As the trackdisk.device
exists now we can start porting the filesystem to AROS.
We are searching for someone to care for the Amiga version of BGUI.
(As for BGUI, we would like someone who will keep it alive on
Amiga (that is, make sure that our changes don't make BGUI
unusable on the Amiga). If you want to help, please contact
digulla@aros.org.

Amiga Link Directory got an external rating feature
As mentioned in our show report (English translation is in process) we talked with many of our audience at the
Amiga show in Neuss and noticed some very good suggestions. Some asked to design the rating possibily inside
Amiga Link Directory (ALS) in a way that the webmasters are able to include a rating code directly into their
websites. Felix Schwarz from Innovative, who has written the ALD for
us, immediate put this query into action.
If you choose a single entry inside the ALD now, you will allways get a link to "HTML-Code for rate boxes four your hompage"
below "Rate this site!". At this you will be able to choose between three different layouts which will show up with the
relating HTML code below. Using cut &'n paste you than can easyly put your favourit HTML code into your homepage. Then the
visitors of your hompage will be able to rate your site! If you get an adequate number of ratings your site will get highlighted
inside the search result list!
Example layouts for amiga-news.de:
