Software updates by Andreas Kleinert
In recent days, PerSuaSiVe SoftWorX has released the following updates:
  • akJFIF version 44.82
  • akPNG version 44.82
  • akTIFF version 44.82
  • SViewIV version 9.10
  • SV-PPC-Module version 24.8

Aside from the usual code maintenance, small and large speed improvements could be achieved everywhere, with differing results on low- and high-end systems (depending on CPU power and memory bandwidth). All programs can be downloaded from the website at the title link.

We do not supply benchmarks, because we think they are worthless unless everybody could verify them on his own (e.g. by using an open source benchmark program, freely available graphics files and a clear system description).

Catweasel ISA Available Again
Today, the first Catweasel ISA boards from the current production run have been shipped. Despite major supply problems we were able to keep delays within limits, the deadline was exceeded by less than a week. The stongly increased demand can now be fully satisfied. To keep the board producable in the year 2000, the "Y2K edition" recieved some cosmetic canges. The board looks different, but is fully software compatible with the 1996 model. It now fits better, and a protection against floppy cables attached in the wrong pin order has been added.

With the Catweasel for the PC you can read Amiga disks as well as all other formats the Catweasel knows, and uses them in emulators. For exsample, the usual formats for all Amiga and C64 emulators are supported. Catweasel works with the usual PC disk drives, so you don't need "original" drives like the 1541 from the Commodore C64.

Ref: News 15.07.2000 - New Virus Discovered
On 07/15/2000 we published a message by Andre Gobet. This message was wrong. The authors of the concerned CD Techno DataBase 00 put our attention on that.

The problems were not caused by a virus but by the replacement of some systemfiles during the automatic installation process. These lead to some incompatibility with the installed OS 3.5. If Andre had read the manual he had known that there was the posibility to make an installation by hand.

We and Andre Gobet are very sorry for this failure

The second and last issue of the CD³²Outside will be published in a few days. CD³²Outside were the last only CD³² magazin. Alltogether we have 14 newsmessages, 4 reviwes, a big workshop about the CDXL-format and about 23 forum entries plus a new AmigaNG program overview.

We the CD³²-Allianz would like to please you to help us to make the second issue of CD³²Outside to something special. There were and still are many games for the CD³² still waiting for a review of one of you in our last issue. Very welcomed would be reviews of games such as Microcosm, AlienBreed Tower Assault, CannonFodder2, Pirates Gold!, SensibleSoccer, AlienBreed3D, Zool 1 and 2 and many more. It is the last issue !!!

It is even the last posibility to advertise for the own game, a cheats-guide or an emulator. Because of the publishing on different CD-ROM you have the posibility to reach a big group of users. We still accept ad's.

We would be very happy about comments on the first issue of CD³²Outside. We will publish the best ones of them in the preface of the last issue.

Horrible Expense to flash PC-BIOS chip

"Scene Archives #1-8" available
For some time APC&TCP offers the CD-ROMs "Best of Scene Archives" and "Scene Archives #9". For a few days "Scene Archives #10" too. Some users asked us if the numbers 1 to 8 are also available, because it is a risk to mail 120 DM to australia. But these is not possible because we do not think that the slaerates would be high enough to cover our costs.

But APC&TCP we tried to find a solution. We negotiated with the australian author and decided to make some kind of collecting-order.

Further detailed information are available on our newspage.

Publisher for Drake
The team of the 3D-game Drake, which orientates oneselves on Microprose's Pirates! seems to have found a publisher. It isn't named for now, because the contract isn't signed yet.

By now, the 3D-engine gets many improvements. More physical laws were added for more realism.

The Drake-Team consists of Oliver Gantert, Andreas Hippauf and Tobias Lutz. The homepage (link) contains some information and screenshots of the game.

REBOL/Express
REBOL/Express is a system which simplifies information exchange between salesmen and their customers, partners, resellers and employees. It consists of the products REBOLink, REBOL/Service and REBOL/Author and replaces customary communications like eMail and WWW by a direct communication-channel, which works in both directions. This offers the possibility to inform customers directly about new products or updates.

All possibilities are described in the productinformation, available at the title link.

Comparison between AmigaOE and Microsoft's .net
In his article Jonathan Clark compares the AmigaOE-System by Amiga/Tao with the .net-system by Microsoft.

Both systems use a virtual processor but have huge differences, too. AmigaOE always uses the little Endian-display, Microsoft offers depending on the processor little or big Endian. In addition, .net contains more type-information in its VP-code. AmigaOE offers a complete OS with Java which can run independently while .net will strongly depend on the WIN32-API and makes operation difficult on Unix-systems.

This and other points are described better in Clark's article.

Amiga in Doctor Dobb's Journal
The september release of Doctor Dobb's Journal contains an article about Amiga titled "Paradigms Lost and Regained". The article reports quite positive about the original Amiga and partly about AmigaOS. Some lines later the article also positively talks about the new Amiga and the new Os based on Tao':s system. It also brings out the fact that the new OS is really something NEW with the words: "this is not the AmigaOS that Amigausers know and love".
