If however, as has been discussed, we go down a dual path of developing a new Open Amiga operating SYStem (OASYS) firmly based upon the principles of the old OS with new ones added then I see no problem in adding a few cludges to the old codebase to parallel what will exist on the new system IF IT IS UNDERSTOOD that the OASYS codebase will completely replace the old codebase + cludges when it is ready and that new development written for it will run properly on the new system (part of the great migration plan). http://www.basden.demon.co.uk/amiga/amiga.diffnt.html From: fleecy

Perhaps anything with the Diet moniker is automatically non-kosher. :) I wonder if they have kosher Diet Coke.

Florida wants to buy out US Sugar corp in order to restore the everglades. http://www.reuters.com/article/latestCrisis/idUSN24363132 I guess more corn syrup for us. I somehow think Bill McEwen is responsible this. He obviously wants more corn syrup in our food so we all will get sick and forget that AI doesn't produce a product. :-) I listened to the podcast this morning and while looking at google news guess what story popped right out at me?

Congrats on the anniversary. The Amiga saga has transformed into a bad daytime soap, it's quite ridiculous. Hyperion dude (talking to Rich Lawrence at the Amiga Roundtable launch party): We'll have Amiga OS 4 on a variety of platforms thanks to our various vendor partnerships... Bill McEwan (unexpected entrance after everyone thought he perished in sailing incident): Not so fast. Everyone: Gasp! Hyperion dude (looking suspicious): Impossible! I watched your yacht get dragged down by the giant squid. Bill McEwan (unnecessarily cocky): That's what I wanted you to think. [queue dramatic music - break for commercial] Actually, if I could get some actors together this could be a YouTube hit. :) Excellent episode.
