No problem on July update neither.

@Chris

Sure.
But it's copyrighted only if there is any copyright holders left. Right?

@salass00

Oh, I didn't know there was an electronic version.

@Amigo1

It's the problem. It doesn't exist in electronic form. Hence the idea to rewrite one.
You can buy the book on Amazon.

@Amigo1

Do you own the guide? Just checking

I'll wait to see if more people join and we'll start working on it.

Hello everybody,

If you own the Amiga User Interface Style Guide and would like to contribute to the platform, join us.
The goal is to write something along the same general idea for future developers. We need a reference guide to keep coherency in our programs. This should help new comers to rapidly "feel at home".

This is not a paid job. You'll do it on your spare time and there is no deadline.

This is an opportunity for non-developers to help the platform.

Anybody interested?

If you ask "What MP is useful for?", I'll answer "To gain stability".
The fact is that developers are humans so they can make mistakes. So their software "can" crash. If they do, MP saves the system.
Of course, a program can be so well written that you can reach high degree of stability (even without MP). Do you remember that NASA used Amigas with programs they wrote?

But, in a market where you must release your software before your competitor, often you cannot work enough on your software. So the risk that it crashes is higher.
Having MP in the OS makes it more stable in the eyes of the end user.

I am sure that if M$ had not put MP in Windows, today there wouldn't be Windows anymore. It would have been replaced by Linux or MacOS.
But with MP, WinNT was already more stable than Win98. As a proof of that, M$ made NT Workstation. They knew they would sell it. And I worked for a company that used only this version on all client computers.
And then they generalised MP to the desktop version and made Win2000.

When my company (250 people) switched from 98 to 2000, I had a 1/3 of calls for assistance. I had enough time to use UAE all day long!

@AJS

I talked with Paul several months ago. He is very busy with the programs he ...sells.
He is not against the idea of an OS4 version of Photogenics but not until the market is commercially interesting again.

@MigthyMax

Please try with a powered hub.

One of the differences in the new version of the USB stack is that it handles correctly low power conditions.
If the mobo doesn't deliver enough power, the USB Stack might disable devices to avoid a USB lockup.

@LiveForIt

Good pics.
Now did SpotUp took over it?

And will you get a fixed CPU board? Or maybe it is too damaged to be fixed....

@abalaban

Here's a list of working hardware.

through it : ADPro, fxScan v2 ImageFX v4.5 ;
ImageFX v4.5 using its own driver
- IBM 4.3 GB UWSCSI harddrive holding FFS & SFS partitions from a Classic system

@all

And do not forget to thank Soft3, the only one hardware supplier (not the list above)

@Atheist

Same here, I'll buy one and I don't know what I'll do with my XE

@Plagueis

Greetings from France... Hope you find a Classic Amiga soon. (and start developing too )

@K-L

If you try to find a website with such name (as you wrote it), it's logical you don't find anything :-p

@spotUP

Wow, not easy for a dummy. A command line program would have been easier

@abalaban

Yes, I noticed it too and found the page I wanted through www.webarchive.org

I would really love to see IntuitionBase content merged with ... well Amigans.net maybe.

@tonyw

I had the same checksum error, fortunately it's not on a required file.

@tonyw

I installed it. Basically what I did is follow the install script and did it by hand. It's pretty easy to understand.
It's a bunch of unpack "this" into "there"...

@poweramiga

No it's 68k but still cool.
