To celebrate the 1000th article of the magazine Obligement, Carl Sassenrath returns through this long interview on its origins at Amiga Inc. in the 1980's (Manager of AmigaOS and Amiga CDTV system development, among others), the bankruptcy of Commodore, its passages at Apple Computer and Viscorp, Amiga NG, or on its new revolutionary language REBOL. A classic name in the Silicon Valley!

Note : The version in French is here.

The OpenTTD Team released an update for OpenTTD 0.5 branch which fixes many known bugs and adds a few new features. You can download it with BitTorrent directly from http://torrent.openttd.org/ (very fast).

Futher we resolved the problems we had with current 0.6 branch, so if no new problems will appear then the future of OpenTTD on MorphOS is secured for now. Thanks to all OpenTTD users who commented in the last thread here on morphzone.org (http://www.morphzone.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=1348).

Read the full story directly on http://www.openttd.org/ (you also find slower HTTP sourceforge.net download of the 0.5.1 release there... in case you have trouble with the BitTorrent download).

Recently a new patch for Desert Racing has been put online.

The game should run faster now and we hope that different problems could be eliminated.

The 3rd patch for the demo of Desert Racing can be downloaded directly from the support page.

The patch for the full version is only available directly via email (because of personalization) from Andreas@apc-tcp.de .
