"sutro" quotes this page
on Eyetech's server that says:
Elate is currently available on a number of processors - including x86 and PowerPC - and is also available as a 'hosted' OS (at about 50% efficiency) under Linux - and this is the environment to be used for the Developer System.. The Blizzard PPC/xVision version still needs some fine tuning - currently being undertaken by Haage & Partner - but is expected to be released in a couple of months. On its release this (PPC/xVision) software will form the main upgrade path for the current 'classic' Amiga user, whilst maintaining compatibility with 680x0-based software.

[News] Titan and Hyperion bring "Alien Nations" from Jowood to the Amiga | ANN.lu |

Ben Yoris writes:
Alien Nations is a real-time strategy game in the vein of "The Settlers", which was enthusiastically received by the German speaking public and press. The game is set on an alien planet inhabited by three very distinct races: the Pimmons, the Amazons and the Sajikis and features campaigns consisting of 10 single player missions per race, set against a giant 3D back-drop. Resource-management, diplomacy, research, commerce and battle are key to success. The Amiga version will most likely require a graphics card and will support PPC accelerators through WarpOS although the feasibility of a 68060 version will be examined. Optional 3D acceleration will be supported through Warp3D. Release is expected during Q3 of 2000.

To download the client go to the following URL at this stage it has only been tested with Ariadine II & Miami v3.2b, but should work with other TCP Clients and other Ethernet Cards..

Neil Bullock points you to this page and writes:
We did this last year for Amiga related websites, and this year we're expanding it to include software and hardware too. This year, there are no fixed nominees. You can nominate whoever you want and vote for whoever/whatever you want to. If you use the nomination page to nominate your own site, you will be given some HTML code allowing you to place a 'Vote for me' box on your site. We'd like as many people to vote as possible. Also, please remember that when entering URLs for software/hardware, it must be the URL to the actual product, rather than just the manufacturers website.

This page features another development engine that can, among others, replicate the AmigaOS graphical interface. Take a look at the screenshots page. While this isn't exactly Amiga news, I think it's interesting nevertheless.

Some quick tidbits from the unmoderated section here on ANN.
A very unconfirmed and somehow unbelievable rumour of Axl Rose programming for the Amiga.
Somebody having problems with AmigaOS 3.5 and looking for assistance.
Another unlikely rumour of a dual-060 motherboard.
An availability notice of Winux.

[News] Tao's new sound system | ANN.lu |
Posted on 06-May-2000 10:32 GMT by Christian Kemp | 8 comments View flat View list |
A posting on Moo Bunny by "Darthanoia" claims that SSEYO Koan is the new Amiga sound system. When following the links, you get to read a press release from 27 Jan 2000 stating that Tao Group provides more information on its highly acclaimed intentâ„¢ digital content engine and toolkit with the details of its integrated audio layer, the SSEYO Koan audio engine.
I'm not sure whether the fact that Tao uses their engine is a valid proof that Amiga will also use it. Any comments?

Did anybody on here hear about AtheOS, a free operating system for the Intel architecture released under the GPL license? I've been looking at the screenshots and see some familiarities...
