Aminet: Main server us.aminet.net goes offline.
Due to a broken RAID harddisk controller, the FTP archive wuarchive.wustl.edu is currently offline. Replacement hardware will not be available until the end of October. Amongst other things, wuarchive is hosting the main Aminet server us.aminet.net.

The Washington University, St. Louis, who is responsible for wuarchive, will use this opportunity to evaluate which archives they are going to host in the future. A small note on the front page explains that only sponsored projects might be supported from now on.

Some other Aminet mirrors are currently not available aswell. The following mirrors are still online:

de.aminet.net
it.aminet.net
no.aminet.net
de3.aminet.net
de5.aminet.net (Partial Mirror)

E3B and individual Computers join forces
E3B and individual Computers have a long standing friendship reaching back to the year 2001 when E3B was founded.

When the USB-controller "SUBWAY" hit the market, the two companies worked together to ensure optimal cross-vendor functionality for a better customer experience. Resources and materials were shared for the manufacturing process.

Over time the cooperation was extended. Due to the great demand, E3B started another production run of the "SUBWAY". This production brings the two companies even closer together when synergy effects of a joint PCB production are used to keep prices low while improving the quality. It were the good direct contacts of individual Computers to the chip manufacturer Transdimension (USA) that made the continuation of the SUBWAY possible.

Both sides are looking forward to further cooperations and are currently evaluating possibilities for joint developments. (cg)
