Wolfram Alpha search engine: AskYourAmiga 0.6 (update)
AskYourAmiga or AYA is a program for accessing the Wolfram Alpha answer engine (Wikipedia). It doesn't provide links to web pages, but answers to search queries directly - which can be processed graphically (e.g. as a curve).

Version 0.5 offers so-called "assumptions" - it is now possible to separate identical search terms. For example, a search for "Berlin" will distinguish between the cities with this name, the band name and the first name or family name.

Update: (20:05, 17.04.21, dr)
Marcus Sackrow has released version 0.6 which fixes a little bug, especially on AROS, that images prevent from loading properly. (cg) (Translation: bb)

Video: World of Commodore 1992 Demo-Competition, Frankfurt
Shortly before the "World of Commodore 1992" in Frankfurt, the German branch of Commodore had called for a demo contest. The four best entries received prizes like various Amiga computers, the main prize was actually a new car. The jury of the competition consisted of Jeff Porter, Dave Haynie (both from Commodore's hardware development department), the graphic designer James D. Sachs ( Defender of the Crown, CDTV among others) and Rainer Benda from Commodore Germany.

A video on Youtube shows the award ceremony and a demonstration of the two best placed demos World of Commodore (video) by Sanity and the winning demo Wicked Sensation (video) by TRSI. (cg) (Translation: bb)
