It seems like the future of the Amiga is bright. I have a reason for saying 
this. Since the last issue of Saxonia, I have received mails from people 
interested in joining the Amiga scene. There was a group who o formerly 
concentrated on ZX Spectrum, and even a single person who wanted to learn 
about the Amiga scene. He had background from C64. So it seems that there 
is still possible to get new people involved. This came as a positive 
surprise for me after reading several negative articles about the subject 
and also thinking of the low amount of new productions released nowadays. 
To show my engagement for the scene, I will, when I complete it, release 
the demo I'm working on outside any party, to show that I am still in the 
business for fun, like people were a long time ago. I hope that also others 
will do this. 

Well, besides the Amiga scene, I have to say that life is real crap these 
days. The fucking military here in Norway sent me a letter telling that I 
was to go into service some days ago. I was to meet up later this summer. 
I applied for putting it on hold to attend school, just like I have 
done before, but this time they wouldn't let me because I was about to 
start a new school, it wasn't anything that had to do with my education 
until now. Well, I will not leave it at that. I have sent a new letter to 
these shitheads describing some reasons why I should be allowed to go to 
school instead. If this doesn't help, I will not meet up anyway, I will 
rather go to jail if necessary. But I doubt that the government fuckheads 
has the time to use that much time on such a case anyway. But if anything 
happens and you don't hear from me for a while, you now know the reason. 

Needless to say, all this shit from these dickheads unworthy of life has 
put me in a rather bad mood. Let's just say that the norwegian liqour 
akevitt (aquavit) has tasted better and better these last days. My mood 
the last days can also be understood in some articles that are not as 
good as I wanted them to be. I simply finished them in a hurry to have a 
little less to worry about. Also, if I have left out some names that should 
have been put somewhere, or done similar mistakes, you now know the reason. 
By the way, the articles are the one about synths and the introduction to 
the scene. 

However, I would like to say that I will continue to make this mag as I 
enjoy doing so in the times life seems brighter. So if I don't hang myself 
you can expect another issue sooner or later. 

Anyway, have a nice read.
