Short: Pictures from the Computer95 fair at Cologne Author: mussi@snoop.alphanet.ch (Rene Laederach), gordini@logic.helvetica.ch (Peter Glauser) Uploader: mussi snoop alphanet ch (Rene Laederach) Type: pix/misc Architecture: generic Pictures from the Cologne 95 fair Here are the pictures (at last!) from the Cologne 95 fair as well as two pics from the Orbit fair! Have fun. Direct suggestions, comments and appraisals to mussi@snoop.alphanet.ch, money to my banc account (details if you email me), A4000Ts060 to me, and post your flames to misc.test. :) I have converted the pictures from a PhotoCD source to have perfect scanning quality (anyway, I can't pay a good color scanner :( ) and used PhotoGenics to convert them. I have then viewed all the pictures with CyberView to check that the jpgs are OK. Phase5 equipment helped to minimize waiting time, but an 040 is still too slow...maybe anybody wanna make my A3000 love these 060 accelerators and donate me one? ;) If you recognize yourself, you could maybe write me some more mail. In case anybody would like to do something nice, I'd be glad for newer beta versions of IBrowse (>0.73) and similarly useful stuff. At any rate, you can also reach me on 2:301/133@fidonet or 39:110/312@amiganet.
