What about Rexx? I'm not familiar (yet) with OS/9, but I think it'd be A Very,
Very, Good Thing to have an implementation of Rexx available for the MM/1
(maybe talk with William Hawes?). It's a fairly high-level language, and since
the MM/1 _is_ multiuser and multitasking, having it on the machine from the
git-go would give yet another slight 'edge' (plus, there are a lot of ARexx
scripts out there already that I'm sure could be adapted quickly and easily.)
You said something about hiring FULL TIME PROGRAMMERS to crank out cool
stuff... I'd be interested in seeing a list of what you have 3rd parties
already working on (like paint programs, animation prorams, etc), and another
list of what applications you'd need full time prorammers for rather than
farming it out (85% curiosity :).
