It looks nice, I bet a lot of hard work went into that.

Both you guys are drunk. Not a smartphone, more likely a remote control for the TV and are you kidding about the CD's in 1989? I had dozens of them by that time and I was still a teenager! CD format was released in what, 1982. By the mid 80's, had my own machine. Late 80's, worked at a CD only store, who went with the LIFT display system. European design, which allowed you flip through the cd's one by one, like LP's. Very cool stuff!   :love:

I agree.  I can't believe that we're debating that any black rectangle in a 1980s/90s photo must be a smart phone from the FUTURE!  Steve Jobs didn't invent the rectangle shape.

And in 1989 I entered university with a room mate who had a CD player and acquired at least that many CDs that year. His shelf looked pretty similar. Besides, who said this is even a 1989 photo? Could be 1993 for all I know and many people had at least a dozen CDs by that year.

Besides, it WAS taken between 1992-1995.  A Google image search reveals its source:

It's taken quiet a bit of developer time to get it to this stage. My hat is off to them on their dedication and speed.

Can anyone photo-enhance this on their Amiga?


When I zoom in on FireFox I can see that the right edge is clear. Must be a cassette box as CD players for cars where still expensive at the time.

I don't understand the relevance of this picture at all.

I especially don't understand this other one on your link!  :lol:

I am still using the original FW on my X1000 and loving its true WYSIWYG print output from my color PS printer. I'll be buying the new version as soon as it comes out.

Yeah this is great news.  I have purchased every version of Final writer and Wordworth since they came out.  I will most definitely purchase this update when it is available for 68k.
A fun side note memory I have is of the authors of FW and WW competing with each other on the features and ranting back and forth on the forums.  CUCUG amiga website I believe.... but I could be remembering wrong.  Anyway... THANK YOU DAMMY!  You'll have my purchase when available!

Which version are you using? i got an old one, cant remember which one, will check when i get home. Did you need to do anything special to get it working on x1000? :-) or to get printing working?
