Amiga Dream

Amiga Dream is the first publication of the group Posse Close (also editor of PC TEAM). It summer created at the time by Romain Canonge, former journalist of Amiga Re-examined, Christine Robert, former editor association of Amiga Re-examined and Francis Poullain, former member of the engineering service of Commodore France. The first number left in November 1993 simultaneously on arrival to France the Amiga CD32, second console of the firm Commodore International after CDTV. The title ceased appearing then in October 2005 (under the name of Login:).

Devoted to its beginnings entirely with the useful and ludic applications of the Amiga, this publication was the first to offer a diskette in supplement whereas the dedicated magazines of the time (Amiga Revue, Amiga News) had not crossed the step. These diskettes systematically contained versions of test of commercial plays, software professional, sharewares, and also of the Démo S (or intros) of the very active scene of the Demomakers.

One of the characteristics of the magazine was its mascot, Dreamette (character created by Eric Wegscheider says WEG then Co-drawn by Christophe Bardon), which was extremely appreciated readers, and who was replaced later by a cow and an insane scientist.

Following the decline of Amiga, this publication gradually was interested in the operating systems known as alternative such as AtheOS, BeOS, NeXTSTEP, RiscOS or Linux like with the programming in different languages.

To reflect this evolution the name was initially changed into Dream then, following an increasingly important place relating to Linux, in Login:.
