Bill Eaves provides a demo version of the astronomy program Digital Universe 1.5. The software is in an early beta state, but not far in future a commercial distribution is planned.
The demo can be installed besides an older full version, but has the following limitations:
- Only one section can be viewed, approximately the region where the Orion constellation is located.
- Only constellations in the period of January 1 to November 5 can be simulated.
- The most part of the hypertext encyclopedia, part of the full version, was removed.

Podcast Receiver: AmiPodder 1.6
AmiPodder by Robert Williams is an ARexx program that allows the reception of so-called podcasts. In addition to MUI, including the NList, NListTree and TheBar classes, RxMUI is also required.
