From: Tim Oren Amiga Forum · Forum Business December 5, 1985 9:08 PM
Bob, count me in! I would be happy to subscribe and contribute to such a magazine. ANTIC is doing its best to cover the ST, and there magazines for Amiga and Mac, but a meeting ground where technical issues can be thrashed out is needed. In my dreams, I would…

From: Bela Lubkin/Sysop Amiga Forum · Forum Business December 5, 1985 6:36 AM
I agree with you and Larry. A generic 68K magazine could be a great success. It would have columns on all the major models, articles on programming in general on the 68K, how to do code optimization in a compiler, how to deal with 68000/68010/68020 differences, etc., etc. Definitely a…
#343- #CO Message #477
From: Bob Perez Amiga Forum · Forum Business December 4, 1985 11:16 PM
I'd like to propose a weekly meeting schedule something along the lines as follows: An Amiga Developers' Meeting every Sunday night, 6:00 p.m., Pacific time; a more general, Amiga Users' Meeting following at 7:00 p.m. Such regularaly scheduled CO's have several advantages. We can all have a time and place…

From: Bob Perez Amiga Forum · Forum Business December 4, 1985 11:06 PM
Tim: I'm glad you brought up the notion of 'organizing detente between the Atari/Amiga/Mac development worlds'. A publisher friend of mine is now making plans to enter one or several of these fields with a journal dedicated to programming. I've been lobbying with him for something along the lines of…

Contact Aegis Development, at 213 306 0735, ask for me if you are interested in developing stuff for the Amiga. We are looking for HOT software to publish.

From: Neil Shapiro/Chief Sysop Amiga Forum · Forum Business December 4, 1985 9:27 AM
Larry — There may be some programs on MAUG that would convert — particularly the MS-BASIC variety. (From the list of Amiga MS-BASIC keywords posted here I'm more convinced than ever this is possible). — Neil

Am I glad I logged on tonight. Not only did I get the news about the reality of 1.1 etc., from Paul Higgenbottom – but I also got to watch the first 400 (it must have been…) messages of a new SIG go by… Congratulations to all of you (and…
#Great SIG! Message #325
From: Tim Oren Amiga Forum · Forum Business December 3, 1985 9:47 PM
Neil, I worked on GEM and have skimmed over the Mac and Amiga manuals now. Let's say there is a "very rough functional equivalence" amongst them. As you say, if you use plain vanilla interface techniques you can probably port reasonably well if you've kept the modularity sane. If you…
