successor with codename Tejas will be not produced. The company has not given any statement
if this means the end for the Pentium-4-architecture; but it is more likely that Intel
turns to the Pentium-M-architecture that does not need so much current.

MorphOS: CPU-Monitor (Update)
Ecologically friendly CPU Monitor for MorphOS
I'm very proud to annouce that we could finish today the first ever ecologically friendly CPU Monitor for the MorphOS operating system.
CPU Monitor 1.0 is completly based on old and recycled source code. It is also completly recyclable for further use and all non recyclable parts, like the falled out hairs of the development crew, are 100% biodegradable. It was for the first time ever possible to renounce animal experiments, therefore no coders were harmed during the several years lasting development of CPU Monitor.
We're very proud and excited about this success!
Please visit http://www.the-recyclable-cpumonitor-project.org for more information and corporate inquiries.
We opened the shop so you can order your 100% chloroform-free copy of CPU Monitor 1.1 for the MorphOS operating system (C.O.D.) NOW! Also a CPU Monitor Brochure for immediate download is available for free.

MorphOS: Sound Exchange ("SoX") 12.17 (noixemul)
SoX (also known as Sound eXchange) is a commandline tool which translates sound files between different file formats, and optionally applies various sound effects.
SoX is intended as the Swiss Army knife of sound processing tools. It doesn't do anything very well, but sooner or later it comes in very handy.
The no-ixemul MorphOS version was build against libmad and libmp3lame and comes therefore with mp3 support. Following formats are supported:
aiff, auto, avr, cdr, cvs, dat, vms, gsm, hcom, maud, mp3, nul, prc, raw, sb, sf, sl, smp, sndt, sph, 8svx, sw, txw, voc, wav, wve and a few more.

Foundation makes Microsoft FAT-Patent dubious
Since December 2003 Microsoft has demanded licence charges for "FAT" (a widely spread
file system which is used on flash-memory or on older Windows versions). It is possible
because the company has got a patent for this technology.
The Public Patent Foundation has requested at the US Patent Office to check this patent.
Obviously the Foundation thinks to prove that parts of the technology existed before
Microsoft implemented it.
