    Leuven, Belgium - April 16, 2004. Hyperion Entertainment and the
    Amiga OS 4.0 development team are extremely pleased and relieved to
    announce that after nearly 30 months of painstaking development the
    Amiga OS 4.0 Developer Pre-release has gone gold and will be sent to
    the duplication plant on Monday, April 19, 2004.

    The Amiga OS 4.0 Developer Pre-release consists of a current snapshot
    of AmigaOS 4.0 for the AmigaOne platform with a straightforward HTML installation guide in English, German, French and Italian as well as
    the Amiga OS 4.0 SDK.

    The Amiga OS 4.0 SDK will allow near effortless migration of existing
    Amiga OS 3.x source-code to OS 4.0 as well as the creation of altogether
    new content.

    The SDK comprises the following material:

    * Complete Installer for easy and painless installation;
    * GNU C Compiler 2.95.3;
    * GNU C Compiler 3.4.0 RC 1;
    * vbcc 0.8f;
    * GNU GDB Source-Level Debugger;
    * System Includes V 50;
    * System Autodocs V 50;
    * PDF Documentation on GNU C compilers and GNU Debugger;
    * PDF Guide "Project Migration to AmigaOS 4.0";
    * Example programs with source (among others: Reaction, expansion library,
    Roadshow, FFS2);
    * Newlib.library (experimential, shared C library);
    * CLIB2 source code.

    Users will be able to register their copy at a soon-to-be-launched
    portal site which will offer Amiga OS 4.0 related content for download.

    Hyperion Entertainment and the AmigaOS 4.0 development and beta-testing
    teams wish to thank all of you for your patience.
