This month, though, some of the shortage is artificial. For example, we know there were Amiga goings on at the Webb.it show in Italy (hey, I really like that name!) However, the following is just about all the information we were able to find about this. The item comes from the wizards over at Czech Amiga News: "9.5.2003 Webb.it: showing Amiga One and Amiga OS 4 beta (68k) Virtual Works, Soft 3 and Bitplane magazine are demoing Amiga One and Amiga OS 4 beta (68k) at the Webb.it show in Padua (Italy) An Amiga One XE G3 800Mhz with Debian Linux PPC and an Amiga 4000 with Os 4.0 beta are present and running at the booth of Virtual Works, Soft 3 and Bitplane. Also an ipaq with Amiga Anywhere is present and the last issue of Bitplane magazine is available. Attenders seems very interested about the Amiga One and the OS 4. Tomorrow Elena Novaretti will show her own Pegasos running MorphOS. We will release more info about the show progress (it will last until sunday) tomorrow. Nicola Morocutti via ANN ExiE http://amiga.czex.com" A good press release would have been appreciated, but at least there's good work being accomplished by Amiga supporters. Another example is the "OS 4 On Tour" effort. It just sort of came up out of nowhere. We have a story on one of the sessions for you below, but no real information on the overall program. The Amiga community almost seems to have no appreciation of the need to get "the word" out. If it's ever to be more than just a side show in the circus of computing, that attitude has to change. Ah, well. As long as WinUAE continues to exist, we'll have something to put in the newsletter. We had a story on release 6 last month, and this time around on release 7. Good for the WinUAE crew! We hope you enjoy this issue. Brad Webb, Editor ---------------------------------------------------------------------- E-mail to the E-ditor: 30 April, 2003 Brad: Regarding Nelson's question about Amiga Forever and Final Writer {see last issue. Brad} ; it's been a long time since I was doing things like that myself, but let me suggest an approach as a work-around. This whole business of transferring to disks a PC can read seems to be tricky, especially for something like Final Writer, which came spread out on a LOT of disks. For some programs I believe it was possible to establish a serial connection and bring programs over that way -- at least with the Amiga there were a finite number of files to locate and bring over, not like Windows programs that always seem to have more necessary files than you can find. This approach obviously requires that you still have a living, breathing Amiga to work with, a serial cable and null modem... If you get everything over to where the emulator can reach, it should work. Greg ====== 2 May, 2003 Hi Brad, First off, thank you ever so much for AmigaUpdate, I appreciate it. I noted Nelson's question to you regarding installing applications (Final Writer) onto the UAE-Amiga part of a PC. Well, I am using WinUAE on my W2K PC. It works perfectly, and I had no difficulty at all. I connected the null modem cable to the Amiga and the PC, clicked on the Amiga Explorer icon, and waited about 12 hours for everything on my Amiga hard drive to transfer to the PC. Then a few changes to the startup sequence and I was in business. Probably the only problem I (and many others) have is printing things written in Final Writer. There just aren't Amiga drivers out there for many newer printers. I found one that "sort of" works, but painfully slow. My answer has been to save the Final Writer document out as RTF file on the RAM: drive, and then transfer to the PC desktop. At this point I pick it up in WordPerfect, after which printing is a breeze. It was difficult for me to determine just what his problem was. Is he running it on a Windows PC or a Linux PC? Just what has he done to try and install Final Writer? Has he consulted the Cloanto wewbsite -- as they have lots of information and answers to questions? There are also lots of answers right on the CD from Cloanto. Finally, there is a UAE website (a discussion group) devoted entirely to the people that use UAE -- they seem to be very helpful, especially to newcomers. Never a day goes by without several questions being asked and answered. URL is: http://amiga.nvg.org/uae/index.html I guess that maybe one the simplest ways to solve this may be to send Nelson my email address or perhaps even this email. He could contact me and I could then discover just what his setup is and what he had done and what has happened. Maybe his problem is beyond me (eg no Amiga) in which case he is no worse off than now. Best regards, Don ~~~~~~ Thanks to both Greg and Don for their assistance. If Nelson still has problems, drop me a line and I will send addresses around as appropriate. Our policy at "Amiga Update" is to avoid publishing last names and addresses of readers in most cases. Brad =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A M I G A O S 4 . 0 O N T O U R A T A U G S B U R G The Amiga Club des Augsburger Computer Forum e.V. and KDH Datentechnik are proud to invite you on June 14th, 2003 into the computer club, the Augsburger Computer Forum. We will present some novelties for your Classic Amiga and we will be able to give you a preview of Amiga OS4.0. Amiga OS4.0 The presentation of the AmigaOne and a preview of Amiga OS4.0 will be given by Juergen Schober / Point Design from Austria (come, see and be surprised !! ). Amiga One The Amiga Club Augsburg will present the newest member of our Amiga family, the Amiga One. The Amiga One Systems are currently delivered with Debian Linux PPC installed. The presentaton machines have a G4 PPC processor with 800MHz. (We might have a surprise for you ;) Algor (world premiere) E3B will present its brandnew Zorro USB Controller Algor, as well as an update possibility to Highway by the name of Romulus You will be able to talk face to face with Michael Boehmer, he is the hardware developer of the USB boards Algor, Highway, Subway and of the ethernet board Norway. If you need some advise, this is the right place and guy to ask ;). The scope of delivery of all USB boards from E3B contains a full version of Poseidon.Poseidon is developed by Chris Hodges in teamwork with E3B. The newest version of Poseidon will be presented together with Algor and Michael will be pleased to answer all your questions. If you want to test your USB devices together with an E3B USB controller, you are welcome to do so. At the show we will give you the possibility to purchase the E3B USB boards . C-One (world premiere) The C-One is a multiple faster than the C64 and has standard interfaces (PS/2-Mouseport, PS/2-Keyboard, Parallel-Port) to communicate with the outside world. PCI slots allow the use of todays PCI-cards, but also the periphery of the C64 is supported, as well as the clockport expansions modules of the Amiga 1200 will work in the C-One. But the C-One is more: It is reconfigurable and thereby the first of its kind. The used techniques allows changing the hardware by means of simply exchanging a file. Jens Schoenfeld will give an explicit, free of charge seminar on the C-One and will explain all the C-One functions. Jens will also answer all questions related to the other products from individual Computers. The products of individual computers can be bought at the show.

URL is provided. Brad} "It's The Amiga! In a competition that has proved that many older formats are still very much live and kicking, the Amiga has emerged victorious to claim the crown as Micro Mart readers' favourite home computer. Ever. It's won a competition that started way back in November, as week by week arguments were put forward for sixteen of the most popular home computer formats. Since then, you've been voting as two formats at a time went against each other, with several upsets along the way. Who'd have thought, for instance, that the Atari ST would head out in the first round, beaten by the AMSTRAD CPC which then overtook the Commodore 64/128 in the next round - by one vote! The BBC Micro surprised us with the amount of support it received too. ... The win for the Amiga comes at a resurgent time for the format, with the AmigaOne finally set to launch shortly, and interest continuing to rise. After what even the most ardent Amiga fan would concede has been a bumpy decade, it seems that the corner may have been turned. But whatever the future for the format, one thing very much is for sure - for Micro Mart readers, it's a machine they're clearly fans of, and it's now officially their favourite home computer of all time." http://www.micromart.co.uk/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- R I A A A P O L O G I Z E S T O A M I G A W E B S I T E {Below is a quote from a CNET News.com article concerning mistakes made by a temporary worker for the RIAA in sending out legal notices of copyright infringement. Brad} 13 May, 2003 "... In a second incident, Speakeasy, a national broadband provider, said Tuesday that the RIAA had apologized for sending it a cease-and-desist letter alleging illegal activity on a subscriber's FTP site devoted to the Commodore Amiga computer. The RIAA's form letter sent to Speakeasy last Thursday alleged the Amigascne.org site illegally "offers approximately 0 sound files for download. Many of these files contain recordings owned by our member companies, including songs by such artists as Creed." The errors represent a black eye for the RIAA's latest efforts against piracy, which rely on automated crawlers to scour the Internet in an attempt to find material that is being distributed in a way that violates federal copyright law. The RIAA refuses to disclose what techniques its crawlers use, but the group appears to employ companies such as MediaForce and MediaDefender. Its copyright enforcers are not required to listen to an allegedly infringing MP3 file in its entirety, the RIAA has acknowledged. ..." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- O S 4 S U P P O R T S E 3 B ' S A L G O R & R O M U L U S 31 May,2003 AmigaOS 4.0 to support E3B's ALGOR and ROMulus flashroms (Garching, 31.05.2003) E3B and Hyperion Entertainment are pleased to announce that both companies are cooperating to ensure that E3B's ALGOR and ROMulus flashroms are properly supported by the upcoming AmigaOS 4.0 developed by Hyperion. The ALGOR is a Zorro II based USB controller which supports both USB 1.1 and 2.0 (no highspeed mode) and which comes with 512Kb of onboard flashrom memory. Existing HIGHWAY USB controllers can be upgraded with the ROMulus flashrom module. Users of AmigaOS 4.x will be able to locate a compressed Kickstart 4.0 image in flashrom memory and thus cut down significantly on booting times. This also opens up other possibilities such as using a USB mouse to control the AmigaOS bootmenu or booting from USB mass storage devices like memory sticks or flashcard readers. "We have been cooperating very well with E3B in the past and this cooperation has already yielded tangible results in the form of USB support for the HIGHWAY USB controller", says Ben Hermans, managing partner of Hyperion Entertainment. "We're happy that we can expand on this relationship as many prospective OS 4.x customers have expressed their desire to be able to locate a Kickstart 4.0 image in flashrom memory." "Our collaboration with Hyperion in the field of USB technology is established for quite some time now and proved to be successful", says Michael Böhmer, CEO of E3B. "For our customers' sake we could achieve things like integration of a HIGHWAY / SUBWAY hardware driver into the new Amiga operating system. We are proud that our ALGOR / ROMulus customers will even gain functionality with availability of AmigaOS 4.x." About E3B E3B (http://www.e3b.de) is a privately held German company, founded in 2001. The company entered the Amiga market with ground breaking new controller cards, which made new technologies like USB available on the Amiga Classic for the first time. As a pioneering company new developments and outstanding hardware designs can be found in all E3B products which are manufactured in Germany to the highest quality standards. E3B moreover offers a wide variety of hardware design services as well as almost any complex custom logic design on FPGAs, CPLDs and microcontrollers. About Hyperion Entertainment VOF Hyperion Entertainment (www.hyperion-entertainment.com) is a privately held Belgian-German company, founded in March of 1999. The company specialises in 3D graphics and the conversion of top-quality entertainment software from Windows to niche-platforms including Amiga, Linux (x86,PPC) and MacOS (OS 9/X). Hyperion Entertainment has undertaken contract-work in the field of 3D graphics for companies such as Monolith (www.lith.com) and has developed a mature, fast, small foot-print technology to bring 3D graphics to low power digital devices such as PDA's and STB's. Hyperion is currently working on AmigaOS 4.0, a vastly enhanced PPC native incarnation of the groundbreaking multimedia OS introduced by Commodore in 1985. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- H O L L Y W O O D 1 . 4 A N N O U N C E M E N T 19-May-03 Hollywood 1.5 official announcement Airsoft Softwair will soon release the major update Hollywood 1.5 which features so many great new things that are totally unique on the Amiga and which will make Hollywood once more the absolute number one in Amiga multimedia.
