In an announcement on the YAM ML, Marcel Beck said
YAM 2.2 will be the last update of YAM provided by himself.
Instead, he will be releasing the source code on the
YAM homepage. So,
hopefully AmigaDE will get a decent e-mail client... ;)

Eyetech group have released an
article on their web site explaning
the new AmigaOne A1200 and A4000 PPC systems.
The system can actually run without the A1200/A4000 motherboard. The article explains all about the new systems and has a brief
history of the Eyetech Group. The A1200/A4000 motherboards are
an expansion of the AmigaOne, rather than the other way round
and will be able to run MorphOS or OS3.9 as well as AmigaDE
natively.

See that picture of the OS3.9 packaging? Now look at the fly dirt under the amiga logo:
I make it out to say: "Scalable multiplatform Multimedia" If os3.9 were classic only,
would/could Amiga put that?

This website is the official source of information for the AmigaOne. It contains
information on the AmigaOne specification, a list of partners who are implementing
that specification into product, progress reports, a Frequently Asked Questions
section, updated twice monthly, and a discussion board.

From Greg Thomas, courtesy of Czech Amiga News: "ACE 2000 was a huge success for Amiga and its users. Many people from many platforms attended and heard FOUR big announcements from Amiga CEO, Bill McEwen. The first and the biggest is the new PPC based Amiga One, the new computer from Amiga. It was emphasised that Amiga is a software company, so in future all hardware will be from third parties, not Amiga itself. There will soon be a card to upgrade your existing A1200 and A4000 (A3000 maybe) to Amiga One specifications with access to Apple Mac accelerators! Second, Workbench 3.9 with a new Kickstart 3.9 chip is to be released. The next update of the SDK is tomorrow and the next version in one months time. And last of all was the announcement that Amiga is opening 10% of the company up to investment from Amiga users. This was a huge announcement in itself and added to the jubilation of the crowd. During his speech Bill said he is not the saviour of the Amiga, we are. This was a great day for our Amiga. Many of the Linux users were very excited about this "closed source" news too :-) The speech was so well received that Amiga user, Rick Hammond said to Bill, "Thank you, this has changed my life. I'm back with Amiga again."
