Cooperation between Petsoff and individual Computers
After a long time the efficient Delfine soundcard continues being produced with a DSP (digital Signal processor) at individual Computers. The card was reworked on the Zorro-site to increase the performance to a level which has never been there with unchanged Z-II buses: "Delfina Flipper edition" gains more than 5MB7sec! This speed can be used to play more channels than it has ever been possible on a different Z-II soundcard or to reduce the cpu-using while playing single channels. All known DSP functions and programs for the Delfina also work with the new cards inclusively the most interesting application which is playing MP3 files with minimal cpu-use. Thus an Amiga without a turbo board is able to play MP3 in best quality! more ... (ps)

So I'm asking now if there are really people out there who want this method of payment. If you do not order any of my programs or the The Best Of Airsoft Softwair Gold Edition CD-ROM just because you cannot pay with credit card please vote now on the Airsoft Softwair homepage.

Utilizing the two new loaders ´RAW Grey´ and ´RAW Color´ the ImageEditor in principle can read any raw formatted picture (e.g. sculpt), now.

Heise: Karlsruhe judges Future of Domain Names
»Federal Supreme Court in Karlsruhe will effect a Domain hearing on Thursday which is considered to be trend-setting for handling general describing web-addresses. First the conflict about the domain www.mitwohnzentrale.de had exercised judiciary of Hamburg. In the end of 1999 regional court of appeal allowed the suit of the roommate center compound HomeCompany and had forbidden the defendant Ring Europaeischer Mitwohnzentralen (REM) to continue using the domain because of anticompetitive action. The use of terms without individual additives would interfere competition at the expense of competitors. This would lead to an "interception" of possible customers just wanting to explore the tender at the market section by 'hit or miss'-typing the Domain name. Because of that they would accidently come to the defendant's sites and would stop searching for other competitors and therefore would not compare other services.«

dynAMIte CD Version News
The recently started dynAMIte CD project is progressing in some way, but unfortunately not as fast as we had hoped. We are on a good way to it, but still need some pre-orders to achieve a minimum of 100. We got some questions about the content of the CD:
  • dynAMIte (the game itself will stay freeware!)
  • New dynAMIte Gfx-Styles
  • New dynAMIte Sample sets
  • At least 100 new levels
  • Extended manual in any imaginable language
  • Big Intro
  • CD sound track
  • and some more surprises which we hopefully will be able announce, soon.
We are looking forward to more pre-orders! (ps)

c't issue 10/2001: Amiga-Comeback?
On page 32 of the latest c't (German computer print magazine), the following can be read:
»Amiga Comeback?
Despite otherwise read rumors Sharp's for the end of the year announced Zaurus PDA will not run with a new developed Amiga OS. Instead of this a specially adapted version of RedHat-Linux will be used. Amiga Incorporated, the remainder of the same named computer manufacturer with rich traditions, will indeed develop numerous Java applications for the organizer, so that the GUI may indeed remind of old Amiga times.
