Ben Hermans Tries to Clarify AmigaONE ROM / OS4 Announcement
"1. The fact that the AmigaOne Falshrom will contain parts of OS 4 is certainly not meant as a way/won't operate to lock out other operating systems such as Linux, BSD etc.

Fact of the matter is that you will be able to compile Linux/BSD for these machines if you insist on it.

2. The real "anti-piracy" measure is the fact that the AmigaOne will ship with an OS 4 OEM version.

It will not be possible to buy boards without OS 4.

You buy the hardware, you're buying the software, just like you did with your old Amiga (or indeed with any pre-build Wintel machine or Mac).

This will ensure that development of OS 4 isn't affected overly by piracy.

Other companies targeting the Amiga market with their hardware should in principle also adopt this scheme to the extent that it is practicable.

In return they will be able to use the Amiga trademarks and tradename and their hardware will be perceived by their target audience as "endorsed" by Amiga.

3. Amiga are insisting that any hardware vendors who want to target the Amiga userbase with their products have their hardware certified and are also "vetted" themselves (support infrastructure, after sales service, financial well-being etc.).

We all know that in the post-Commodore years certain companies were allowed to operate in the market which didn't exactly shine in the area of after sales service (including repair) and tech support.

Many a user has left the market because of incidents with (expensive) hardware being sent away for repair never to be heard of again.

Many a dealer has closed his Amiga business because of the fact that they could not guarantee any form of after sales service to their customers and were in fact exposing themselves to legal action on the part of their customers.

On January 1, 2002 a new EU directive on warranty obligations is supposed to be transposed in national law which imposes even stricter warranty obligations on dealers.

It's clear that it would be very detrimental to the Amiga brand and the perception of Amiga Inc. and its products if former practises would be allowed to continue."

New IRC client: BenderIRC version 1.4
The new IRC client BenderIRC is here. Full of functions and possibilities and totally different to all IRC clients so far for the Amiga. From CTCP to XDCC is everything here. Even the DCC SEND problem from the locale network with IP-NAT has been solved.

What makes BenderIRC now so special? Well, the complete GUI can be set up as the user wants it. Whether gadgets are there or not, it doesn't matter! Their size? That doesn't matter, too! Build your own IRC client!

And what completes this all? The client has a built in BOT function. Remote access to your computer, of course password secured ;-). Integrated translation engine for German <-> English that can be used within the channel!

And all those who need even more will love the plugin system of BenderIRC! Example: if the sentence "News on www.amiga-news.de - people, read it immediately" appears the website pops up in no matter of time :-).

As the client was earlier finished than the Denic creating the domain here's the direct link to the download site or you wait until the program is on Aminet.

Download: ftp://212.162.56.70
