In Memoriam

Diese Seite ist Softkill gewidmet, meinem Computerclub in den guten alten Zeiten.

Der Spruch "Anarchie auf Rädern" geht auf Wolfgang `wosch´ Schnabel zurück, seines Zeichens Redakteur der Zeitschrift RUN.

Meine grüße gehen an Piet, wo auch immer Du sein magst.

This Page is dedicated to Softkill, my Computer Club in the good old days.

The Club was formed in the early '80s and existed over 10 years. It was named after software which is killing your time (or life *g*), thus "Softkill". The name was first published in the Commodore C64 magazine RUN.

Other SOFTKILL resources on The Web:

• There is a freeware tool named softkill (or skill) under Unix. However I did not find it anywhere (haven't looked in metalabs aka sunsite yet).
• There is a MIDI at a page named design (alternate link: design) - I try to get it as BGSOUND (or EMBED) here ;)
• It looks like there is a magazine named Softkill. However I did not find any link to it. It is mentioned at Lollipop Online. All other links I found were dead. I noted the author.
• It looks like Softkill is a military idiom like in "the Mission of radar guided anti air defense missiles" =8-O
  And there is really an interesting Product at EuroTorp. Wish I could utilize this at Microsoft ;)
