The "AmigaGadget" is a disk magazine, which consists mainly of
articles in German language (*DEUTSCHSPRACHIG*) which are supplied
by the readers. But there are also some texts from the internet
forming kind of "reader's digest of the net".

The "Gadget" covers subjects ranging from information about the Amiga to
political questions - even movie and record reviews are included.

Articles of issue 35 include :
 - interviews with Wolf Dietrich (phase 5's general manager) and
   Vittorio Ferrari (programmer of best-selling adventure "Sixth Sense
   Investigations")
 - backgrund information about the European Monetary Union
 - lots of stories
 - experiences with the Micronik infinitv tower
 - political discussions (e.g. protection of animals)
 - reviews of games ("Pinball Brain Damage", "MegaBall"), applications,
   CD-ROMs ("eagle Linux") and computer related literature as well as
   reviews of records and movies
 - report from the CeBIT'98 - including information about the new
   projects of Pios

The archive contains a special version of the "Gadget" which can be
installed to your harddisk simply by unpacking it. But to get the magazine
work there should be some files in your directories, which you probably
have already (if not - most of them can be found in the Aminet) :

    LIBS:   reqtools.library
            diskfont.library
            iff.library
            powerpacker.library
            medplayer.library
            xpkmaster.library
            compressors/xpknuke.library

    C:      IconX
            Run
            Assign

If you use CyberGraphX with a monitor which can only handle frequences
>15kHz there _might_ occur some problems promoting the "Gadget" screen.

If there are any problems left, feel free to contact us. And enjoy the
"Gadget".... (and my most peculiar English)
