In Brief: Rywin Commission; Optimus Super Computer; AmerBank

Ziobro insisted on the confrontation since, in his opinion, Kott had frequently contacted Rywin, which can be proved by telephone bills. (Puls Biznesu, p. 4)... Axel Springer Polska will continue work on launching its high circulation daily. The rumours about its abandoning plans to introduce its new tabloid appeared after Agora decided to suspend its work on its new daily. (Puls Biznesu, p. 5) ... Optimus will launch a Supercomputer with a 256 processor at the Technical University in Gdańsk. It will be the most powerful computer in Poland and one of 100 fastest computers in the world. The value of the contract has been estimated at zł. 3.2 million. (Puls Biznesu, p. 6; Parkiet, p. 4) ... AmerBank intends to change its name into DZ Bank Polska.
