 Frank Everyones OSK software is good since when you do a port most of the
software is from microware. The Idea behind OS9 is for microware to provide 99%
of the OS with the person doing the port suplying only 1%. it is misleading to
think that any ones OSK is beter than another persons. It only takes between 1
and 2 weeks to do an os9 port and that is only if you have unusual hardware.
Most of the osk problems start with microware and are shared equally with all
users. I speak from experience here. I have been using GIMIX hardware for about
4 years. We both know how long they have been at it. I have also done about 5
ports. There software suffers from the same problems as the software that I
have after doing the port. OSK 2.3 has manny problems which Hazlewood will
share with Paul and every one else who uses it. The computer that I am using
now is a 68030 which I ported OSk to about 1 year ago. Most of the problems
that I have had have been related to problems with OSK itself. That is why
there is a new version about once a year. Frank I wish you the best of luck

Weather Paul or you suceed will not affect my using of OSK or my designing of
new hardware.
