However, many mails to us kept us from this step. To clear up things more we announce the following: 1. Within the next 2 or 3 days we will put every technical information which we have online. This includes also internal datasheets, internal layout specifications, api specifications, etc. So non-believers and believers can read this information and then think about it once more. As that we have plenty of work to do, please appologize if not everything at once is available on the website. CEO Martin Steinbach had a phone-talk with Mr. Raukamp of "AmigaOS" today and they agreed on the following: 2. Shortly before the official launch, Iwin will organize a presentation in Germany where both computers will be shown in the M68k and PPC version with software running on it. We encourage every person to bring their Amiga software with them and try if it runs on our computers. This will be also a good test for us - as we mentioned before - to see it in a "real life" test. Exact date, time and place will be announced here and on ".amiupdate" soon. Currently we are searching for partners for the presentation. 3. Mr. Raukamp as well as other magazines will receive various information, demos, etc. about the A510 and A1010 in the next couple of days. 4. Mr. Raukamp as well as other editors of various magazines will get to see both machines before the official presentation to review them. People will be able to read the tests in the magazines then. Some more things we would like to mention: People who don't like how our firm is organized may continue to complain about it. We know that the A1010 orginally was an external floppy drive which looked a bit big... and as far as I know, the A510 was the original 512K expansion for the A500. These products are not sold anymore, but if somebody doesn't like the name for our products - make suggestions and we will consider renaming them. Many people have complained about our isp and provider. We don't anything what it has to do with our plans to sell computers which can be made compatible with the Amiga. However, we are in negotiations with other providers - in Germany and the US. Greets, Rue Ann Mark Vice President
