Interview with Urban Müller (Aminet Administrator)
Interview with Urban Müller
by Petra Struck - 09.01.2003 (In Deutsch)
As we had to report in early January, the Aminet series of CDs was cancelled. So Aminet CD
#52 will be the last one put together. This turn of events compelled us to ask a few questions of Urban Müller, the person who does the CDs and is
also an Aminet administrator.

New FAQ Page for HIGHWAY / SUBWAY
E3B is offering a compilation of frequently-asked questions (and answers) on their website. If you have USB problems they recommend that you first take a quick look there, perhaps the problem is already known and may be easily solved.
This FAQ is offered as support for customer service. If you have problems or questions E3B is also available by email, of course!

Haage & Partner Website Revised
The webpage of Haage & Partner has been completely revised. At the first glance it seems that Amiga will not play a big role at H&P
in the future. The resisted decline of the Amiga market is apparent. The Amiga pages are there as they were before, but the principle
focus of H&P is now visibly in other areas.

No Soldering Required: Radeon 9500 Conversion to Radeon 9700
Driver patch enables functions only offered by more expensive products. After the Russian website Overclockers.ru publicized a modification in which one could change a Radeon 9500 with 128 megs RAM to a better-performing Radeon 9700 with a BIOS update and a bit of solder, the story continued: tinkerers found new ways to do the same thing without any hardware modification nor warranty voiding, although there are a few restrictions.

Amiga Inc. Website Covered in Computeractive's Netcharts
The website of Amiga Inc. has landed in the "Netcharts" section of the English-language computer newspaper 'Computeractive.' The website is described as follows:
www.amiga.com
Unlike the rest of the 1980s home computer systems such as the Sinclair
Spectrum and Commodore 64 that went west during the early 1990s, the
Amiga is still reasonably common. All sorts of software and applications
are still being developed and Amigas are still widely used to create
video effects for TV and film.

amiga-news.de tries new ways of financing
The costs for amiga-news.de were covered by banner ads only. Due to the stagnation of the Amiga market it became more and more difficult during the last year to find paying clients for these banner ads.
With Martin Wolf of Eternity
we try from today on a new kind of advertisements. amiga-news.de sets up a banner for a product, in this case 'Tales of Tamar', and for every purchase that was done via this banner amiga-news.de gets a provision.

achieved in the C64 scene by sites like

Amiga remix specific mailing list at Yahoo Groups.
Let's hope for a growing Amiga remix scene in 2003.

Innovation at amiga-news.de
With the beginning of this month is Sven Drieling not anymore at our services for news and commentation as after 3½ years full of work for amiga-news.de he now wants to attend to his own projects again. For possible problems with the scripts Sven remains, though :).
Very special thanks to Sven for the work he had done.
Up to now Sven had done the Sunday news and had helped in managing the forum and the comments. Besides that he lent a helping hand in cases when I had no time. We have internally discussed several possibilities how to fill this gap respectively how to solve the problem as I really can't and don't like to give up my free Sunday.
