John, >>I'm still holding my breath for the PC-based Amiga emulator, though. It wouldn't surprise me if one arrived someday, probably from Europe. I'm also
MWB 2.0

John, When I registered I received my MWB by return of post ie in 3 days ! This may have something to do with the fact I live in Germany though…. Muir
Strange MM issue
Message #48076
John, I have had SCALA since MM210 and am now up to MM400 – which I really like. After solving issues with running Echo with MM400 I am left with a very strange situation. I currently have my mouse cable plugged into the dongle then inserted into the mouse port…
Chuck, Thanks for the upgrade info and passing on our feedabck to management. One further question. I live in Germany, but my software is registered in the US. Last time I checked, the German distributor was not willing to give me an upgrade… said I would have to organise via…
Jeff, Thanks a lot for such a comprehensive answer and update. From this and the dealer meeting in the US I think your assessment of things hanging in the balance for the Amiga is right. This is a real shame as I am sure that what is needed after the…
All, Is anyone going to attend one of these days to see if there is anything new to report from AT ? Muir
Jeff, How is JAM coming along …. it's been a long time since I had a good read at the last issue ! Muir
Thanks and will do. Muir Cyberstormed A4000/Mac Quadra 900 The original Taunus Amiga
…and what would be wrong with that…. anything that sells more higher spec machines can only be good in my book. Good luck to Ratios. Muir
Jeff, Agree on the market deomgraphics. On price, exactly my point….. either someone is making a lot of money on this or the cost of production of the manuals/ROMs etc is very high. Given that someone in the UK thought they could sell the stuff for 50 pounds it seems…
Chuck, Thanks for the explanation. I certainly do not blame you but I think you are dead right not to trust what you are told. Incidently I bought my LW3.5 software last October and there was no mention of a time limit to the upgrade offer anywhere in the package.…
Erik, Thanks for the moral support. On the speed question I have a 40MHz 040, so can't give you a real feel for the speed of the 060. I thought the benefit of the Cyberstorm on rendering was good (2-4x better) with the 040 and on-board Fast RAM …. from…
#VillageTronic and 3.1
Message #208213
Jeff On the subject of inflated pricing for OS3.1….. >What pushes the price right up is the shipping cost from Germany.< You might be interested to know that even in Germany OS3.1 is advertised at DM199 for an A40000 which works out at about #90 UK. Posting the packet from…
Michael, Having used the 3.5 Amiga version, I must admit to loving the programme and everything I have read about version 4.0 sounds very good. However, a word of caution …. if you do buy LW 4.0 for the Intel machines…. don't assume you will be able to upgrade it…
Erik. I think you are so right. I for one feel that the least NewTEk can do is inform those customers they have not contacted and offer them the chance to upgrade as they promised, if the customer declines then OK. I for one refuse to pay full retail price…
Chuck, Maybe you can pass this on as well. I must admit to being absolutely disgusted at what I consider to be an incredible con by people with clearly questionable moral values. Whatever happened to fair treatment to customers ? I could live with this decision to discontinue the upgrade…
