Editor's Thoughts and Introduction:
Another month with a short supply of news. 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.

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:
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

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.

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.

{Below is a quote from an article appearing on the MicroMart web site.
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."

{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.

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.
