Bitfellas.org and Diskmag.de
Diskmag.de have always had their own news section, but that has now changed. They have initiated a co-operation with another site called Bitfellas.org. These two sites will therefore be sharing the incoming news in the future.
According to Ghandy/Scarab, who is the main man behind Diskmag.de, the deal will have positive effects for the users. Ghandy writes as follows: "You post your news at one station and they will be shown at both. Spam became a serious problem at diskmag.de - now the bots first must negotiate the barrier. And you can easily syndicate the rss feeds from the news now! Plus a lot more! Find out the rest on your own!"
After having a quick look at the improved news section, it is clear that the amount of contents has grown. There were many interesting bits of news available, concerning the ZX Spectrum Scene, the Amiga Scene and others.
If you are interested in having a look, please visit Diskmag.de by clicking here. |

Adfread will allow you to create ADF floppy disk images from regular
Amiga disks using standard PC hardware. It uses same method as Disk2FDI
but is compatible with Windows 2000 and newer.
Requirements:
- Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista
- PC mainboard must have hardware support for 2 floppy drives
Unfortunately most modern PC mainboards don't have B: drive motor
and select signals connected. MB is compatible if you can configure
both A: and B: drives in BIOS. (usually..)
- 2 non-USB floppy drives installed on the same cable
- Regular format Amiga disks without any copy-protection
- A normal PC-formatted 1.44M floppy
Changes from 1.0 to 1.1:
- Improved internal disk operations
- Adfread can be run multiple times and only damaged sectors are
retried (uses name of adf and status file to store sector status
information)
- Small fixes and updates
