Hollywood is Airsoft Softwair's ultimate Multimedia experience and a must-have for every Amiga user who wants to use the full power that is in his machine. Hollywood comes on a CD-ROM that contains versions for all Amiga compatible platforms: There are native versions of the program for AmigaOS3 (m68k), WarpOS (ppc), MorphOS (ppc), AmigaOS4 (ppc) and even AROS (i386). A download version is also offered. If you order the download version, you will have to download an ISO image which you need to burn on CD-R then. If you already own Hollywood 1.x or Hollywood 2.0, you can buy a discounted upgrade version.

Hollywood is the ultimate bridge between all the different AmigaOS compatible platforms! With Hollywood, you can save programs for all those platforms. You do not have to have AmigaOS4 or AROS, you can save programs for these platforms also from your AmigaOS3 installation! Only Hollywood makes it possible. If you want to learn more about Hollywood, please visit the Hollywood product information which also contains a full feature list of Hollywood.

Finally, Hollywood 2.5 is ready for the brand-new Hollywood Designer 2.0, a massive update which will be released in a few days and will take presentation editing software on the Amiga platform to a whole new level. You can already order Hollywood Designer 2.0 now and it will be delivered to you as soon as it is released. In fact, you can save some money if you buy Hollywood 2.5 and Hollywood Designer 2.0 together; just have a look at the order page for available product bundles. Hollywood Designer 2.0 is also available in a download and CD-ROM version.

Join the Multimedia revolution and get your personal copy of Hollywood 2.5 now!

I did put my upgrade order immediately I noticed this from other Amigagroups. But now I have waited over 6 hours for the promiced payment info via e-mail. Is it fully automatic, or do you have to reply every order by hand? Did my spam avoidance (eha(at)...) make some problems with the order?

My order number is #82472411 (I hope there has really been that many orders already!-) if that helps solving the wait problem...

No, but the mail bounced:
