`15.Dec.2000` Rainer Benda on ANF	Trouble with Defective Crusoe Processors NEC calls back notebooks Shortly after notebooks with the Transmeta processor went on sale, they make negative headlines. Because of defective chips, NEC calls back the sold notebooks. NEC shipped the new notebooks La Vie XM. 284 in Japan for only a few days, now they were called back because of defective processors. According to Transmeta, the fault has already been fixed, the devices run without problem. Probably a reaction to the defective chips: the stock market value of the processor manufacturer dropped by 5.06 US$. Apparently, defective chips have also been built into the new Sony Picture Books Vaio PCGCi VE. Other than NEC, the Japanese company does not plan to call back the computers. An exact number of affected devices is not known yet. US media speak of about 13,000. Sony offers free exchange of the notebooks if difficulties with installing Windows appear. [News message: 15.

`15.Dec.2000` Rainer Benda on ANF	SEGA in the red (Irina Srebot) - Since the introduction of the Dreamcast console, the former hope becomes a millstone round the company's neck. The Japanese company faces a financial dilemma. Sega expects for the current financial year a loss of 193 million Euro. Despite price reductions to stay competitive with Sony's Playstation 2, there's no hope for a change. Analysts recommend Sega to concentrate on developing software. Since March 2000, Sega sold profitably 30.2 million games. Supplement 12-16-2000: Accidently we coughed an elder message. On 12-12-2000 Heise reported that contrary to what many experts expected Dreamcast sells very well after the release of Playstation 2. So according to the manufacturer around Thanksgiving sells increased of 85% percent compared to sells of the week before. Also Sega would profit from Sony's delivery problems in the case of Playstation 2, said Peter Moore, president of Sega USA, in an interview with the news service CNET on the Jupiter Entertainment Conference in Los Angeles, yesterday.

`13.Dec.2000` Petra Struck	Nursery School ? As I learned the IRC conferences organized by UGN and conducted by the Amiga-Club didn't went off as without a hitch as I said in my show report. Script-kiddies didn't have better things to do as to flood the channel with multilating scripts, so some of the panned IRC conferences had be interrupted or could not take place, at all. UGN was already thinking of never again to organize conferences from shows. To people not able to attend a show the IRC conferences always were an appreciated possibility to get actual information, and most of all the only opportunity to address their questions directly to the VIP's of the branch. Therefore I appeal to the scrip-kiddies to grow up at last and to stop their nursery school behavior. [News message: 13.

`13.Dec.2000` Michael Burkhardt on ANF	With Amiga to the Diploma By this I would like to officially thank everybody who guided and supported my during my studies to become a graduate engineer for media technics. To everybody who suffered from my lack of time I would like to say thank you for your understanding. As my final year project substantially deals with Amiga I would not withdraw it from the public. It is available for download on my homepage (German): un-archived as pdf file(1,8 MB) lha archived (1,2 MB) The subject of the project is: Conception and implementation of an automated control for a monitor-wall under technical and marketing political aspects. Automation bases on an ARexx script controlling several applications running non an Amiga 1200. For creation of software my special thanks go to: Rico Schreckenbach Stefan Robl Karlheinz Marks Stefan Steppat To continue this project placing of some hardware for MPEG video display would be necessary. As e.g. the related module for the CD32 isn't available any more, for this new projects as like as Mediator might be addressed as a solution. With this technic and our software an arrangement could be designed and delivered that would be unique in the event branch. - runs stable and reliable - optimized software - well-priced hardware - easy editing - arbitrary expandable With this the most efficient and moreover cheapest device of it's kind would be created. Well now, dear hardware developers: don't let them detain or discourage you. THANK YOU. [News message: 13. Dec. 2000, 07:04] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
`13.Dec.2000` Rainer Benda on ANF	Think-pad without Crusoe IBM will not bring note-books with the Crusoe processor by Transmeta to the market. On detailed reasons the company keeps silent. The official statement from IBM said the processor would not fit to the current marketing concept. The decision not to equip think-pads with this processor is a bad blow for Transmeta. An unfavourable timing, because from November the company's shares shall be deald in Nasdaq. Senior analyser Peter Glaskowsky from Microdesign Resources assumes that IBM wouldn't like to use the processor due to the bad performance. Testings with Sony note-books would have turned out that a Crusoe processor 700MHz would not be faster than an Pentium 233MHz, Glaskowsky added. [News message: 13.
