-Zune and MESA/Gallium activated<br />
-Netsurf updated (much faster)<br />

LoView 2.80 released<br />
LoView was an easy to use viewer designed to let the user<br />
choose what to do in a fast and comfortable way. Supports<br />
many file format(depending on DataTypes you have installed)<br />
and may save in JPG, PNG, IFF or BMP file format,<br />
so you can also delete/copy/move/ rename/save a rotated<br />
or flipped image for example or maybe only convert an image<br />
in another format you like...<br />
Here a list of changed/new features:<br />
- Fixed some really annoying bugs, Reworked Exif reading<br />
routine with support for some Pentax Makernote TAGs added<br />
some new more standard TAGs to be shown, Added a<br />
complete preferences editor with also an easy installation<br />
procedure, now the LoView menu was a system friendly<br />
menu when LoView works in windowed mode, now preferences<br />
was stored in ENVARC:LoView/ and no more in the<br />
LoView icon(the old ones can be imported from old LoView<br />
icon while installing), The SlideShow routine was now completely<br />
reworked to grant the user a full immersive new<br />
mode(now you can switch SlideShow in complete FullScreen<br />
and change also background colour if you like)so you<br />
can nicely slide your honeymoon or trips or whatever you<br />
like photos to your friends/parents with your Amiga on<br />
your home TV :), Added a NEW prefs "Load ALL" that can be<br />
selected to pass the entire file list to LoView without prescan<br />
directory for valid files in that way the image will be<br />
Download and download-condition from:<br />
http://www.aros-platform.de/downloads/Aros_Vision.zip<br />
loaded same time than with SinlgePic pref selected but you<br />
have the whole filelist available in the Jump To window to<br />
choose(wrong files will be eliminated while loading), now<br />
the Crop function doesn’t draw a fixed crop area but that<br />
can be resized<br />
clicking on the borders while using the hand-pointer, Added<br />
the new preferences NoOutpuError that skips silently unsupported<br />
files(really useful if you load huge directory with<br />
not so much supported files and use tighter the LoadALL<br />
preferences), added iconify functionality from the menu,<br />
added the ability to drag drawers over the LoView icon in<br />
AmyDock instead of only single files.<br />
*** The LoView experience was now 10/15% faster thanks<br />
to new Hollywood 6! ***<br />

Ancient Amiga Running School Aircon<br />
One Ancient Commodore Amiga Runs the Heat and AC for<br />
19 Public Schools. The 30-year-old computer has been running<br />
day and night for decades. Somewhere in Grand Rapids,<br />
Michigan, there is an ancient Commodore Amiga that is hard<br />
at work. For over a quarter century it has been controlling<br />
the heat and air conditioning at 19 different schools and running<br />
nonstop. It's still kicking, for now anyway.<br />
