This new site will relate to all the products AmigaNG and Amiga Classic available, but will still link towards the old site (current version) for a certain time. This, in order to benefit from the quantity information accumulated during many years of service !

Still an official statement of RELEC (http://www.relec.ch), your distributor of Amiga Software & Hardware :

The new configuration "TheRedOne" is the fruit of the experiences gained with our first kind of integration, the famous AmigaOne "micro-A1" which has already given you an idea of our personal label.
This configuration enabled us to highlight qualities of the SAM440ep motherboard by ACube Systems (http://www.acube-systems.com) : very low consumption, silence, power and current technology, combined with an extreme integration.

Moreover, "TheRedOne" will be able to follow you everywhere with our concept of protection and transport. Come to visit our offers now : "TheRedOne" and... SAM440ep on http://www.relec.ch/samantha/sam440ep.html !

Amiga Seeding the Success Campaign from DiscreetFX


The Amiga computer represents a lot of firsts in the computer industry but it also represents many missed opportunities. Since the death of Commodore in 1994 the Amiga has descended into dark times. They say you learn most from your failures and not your successes and this is most certainly the case when it comes to Amiga. And yet some good things have happened as well.

Here is an announcement of RELEC and Pegasos-Suisse.com :

Since Porter/Duff style image compositing will be part of AmigaOS 4.1, I've decided to try and start a series of articles on the topic. Part one is now up, and can be found here. I want to extend this series in the future, and also go into the programming itself, including sample code.

#amiga guide magazine, #AG for short, is ready with issue 4. Both paper based and PDF based formats are ready.

Paper based magazine is for subscribers only, but PDF version is downloadable free of charge after a registration at AmigaWeb.net. This registration is also free of charge.
