24-May-97 -- Big announcement posted to newsgroups
Since SASG has never publically announced its website and the new SASG Internet Services, it was time now to post an article to the major Amiga newsgroups. The time was appropriate because we had many events to celebrate (birthday, hitmark record, new Reg-Program) and also a special offer to make: Our unrestricted 20% birthday discount for everybody!


23-May-97 -- 20% birthday discount for everybody!
To celebrate our birthday and our website attendance record, we have decided to let everyone participate in our achievements by making a special offer: SASG International grants you an exclusive, time-limited 20% birthday discount on all of its featured products! We thought it would be appropriate to give away our products for 20% less for exactly 3 weeks, since we are celebrating our 3rd anniversary. This means, if you register one of our products before the 13-Jun-97, you will be granted this special birthday discount. On friday the 13th, this exclusive offer will expire!


22-May-97 -- SASG Registration Program v4.0 released
The new SASG Registration Program is a complete rewrite. Even though it is so small in size it contains all information about the SASG, its standards, payment methods and currencies, its background and the author & product information. It is very easy-to-use by featuring an intuitive design and help texts to guide the user. With it you can register our SASG products in all needed payment methods and currencies. It supports credit cards, email, fax and security orders via PGP. It is bilingual, fills out the order form automatically if you want to upgrade, has got an improved printer support and a built-in TCP/IP system for transmitting email orders directly to our Shareware Center. And if this is not enough, we have added a jaw-dropping SASG trailer with animations and a few gags -- the first time that you will see this in a workbench window!


20-May-97 -- Happy birthday SASG!
Today SASG turned 3. We are celebrating our 3rd anniversary! For three years now SASG is supporting the Amiga scene with its major software products that helped the Amiga to stay as appealing and as functional as we could imagine it. Due to our permanent contributions and dedication to this platform, many Amiga users have expressed that SASG has actually played an important part in keeping the Amiga alive for the last 3 darker years.

SASG was founded in May 1994. Most Amiga users will remember this time as the downfall of Commodore. SASG was born out of this crisis since we wanted to show our solidarity with the Amiga and its users worldwide for we knew that the liquidation of Commodore would not simultaneously mean the downfall of the Amiga computer. After 3 years we can proudly say that our decisions and feelings were right on this matter. It was good to support the Amiga and its users by keeping this platform strong and flourishing.


18-May-97 -- SASG website beats 100,000 hitmark!
Although we have not announced our new website yet, over 100,000 Amiga users worldwide have visited us on the web and enjoyed their stay so far. As for them, our website "is the most beautiful, functional and professionally done site" they have ever seen on the web (see the comments in our Guestbook). It has become a major address to turn to for many web surfers. We thank everybody who has visited our website and helped to make it so popular!


22-Apr-97 -- Software discounts for SASG customers
SASG is now offering an astounding 20% discount on all of its featured products, if you have already registered another SASG product before. This is SASG's special campaign to support customer relation and to promote our new website to the public. Use this opportunity as long as we offer it to save your money. Order the products of your choice now and experience the quality and professionalism of SASG products for just that little shareware fee, and now for even less than that! We can assure you that you will be very satisfied.


30-Mar-97 -- Interview about GW2000 as new Amiga owner
Amiga magazines have approached us to give an interview about our opinion on the new aquisition of the Amiga assets by the renowned company Gateway 2000. They wanted to know our assessment of the situation and how this move would affect SASG's plans for the future. The interview was printed in several magazines.


12-Mar-97 -- SASG supports First Virtual® payment
SASG now accepts registrations via the First Virtual internet payment system. Paying by First Virtual (FV) is completely secure since no confidential information like the credit card number and expiration date is transmitted over the Internet at any time. Even the seller (i.e. the company you order from) will not see this data. After you ordered a product with your PIN (FV password) you will immediately receive a personal email from First Virtual asking you to approve the purchase. Only after you approved it will your credit card be charged. So, no one but you can actually use this PIN, even if others have seen it or somehow know about it. If you still pay with credit card on the web, there is absolutely no reason why you should not get yourself a First Virtual PIN immediately. It costs you nothing (the seller pays the FV charges) and can be easily completed in just a few minutes. We invite you to enroll now. After that you can use your new First Virtual PIN to pay everywhere on the web!


15-Feb-97 -- Strategic alliance with Vaporware
SASG formed a strategic alliance with the shareware organisation Vaporware. This organisation produces and distributes many high-quality Amiga Internet applications such as Voyager, AmIRC, AmFTP, Microdot etc. SASG and Vaporware are now partners in the Amiga shareware scene working closely together. A first immediate benefit users have from this alliance: Everyone who has registered Vaporware products is granted an exclusive 20% discount on all of our featured software products!


01-Aug-96 -- SASG website goes online
The SASG website is online now. Although we tried to keep this project secret before we went online, thousands of interested Amiga users found out about it weeks before and rushed on our website the day we premiered it. It was a total success. Read about the first impressions of visitors from all over the world in our Guestbook.
