For Immediate Release

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. The Amiga market has branched off into some healthy competition with the arrival of MorphOS, AROS & Amiga OS 4.0. The Amiga emulation scene is alive and well with Amiga Forever from Cloanto. And lets not forget the hard work of the developers of Minimig, Natami & CloneA. Amiga developers have transcended the need of one company controlling the destiny of Amiga and have forged ahead in interesting ways.

As you all might know it is time for the big Sceneevent "Breakpoint 2008" in germany. There are many competitions for our beloved Amiga. The event takes place in Germany and for those (includning me) who cant be there there are a live-stream from the competitions. Many great amigademos has been released on this party and I got the feeling that this year will be good. There will also be streaming from live acts and seminars.
