Well... yeah, that occurred to me right after I left the message. You must mean
an A500, tho, since CBM has (yet again :) discontinued the A1000... Got the
'grand tour' of Microware today... some of it was pretty impressive... Some of
it was d*mned impressive :). James Jones (my tour guide ) showed me this
nifty little Sharp 68000 import running OS/9 68000 v2.2. While the windowing
system looked very impressive, it appeared to have one or two features I didn't
care for (auto-window-to-front, for example)... I only mention that becuase it
gives me an excuse to suggest that you/kevin let me take a lookit the gui for
the Millenium before its released (even a GIF pic, if I don't have one by
then). A book James gave me ("OS/9 Sourcebook"), lists a bunch of software
titles for OS/9... unfortunately, I didn't see, in a brief look-see, any
graphics oriented or entertainment oriented titles (other than some GKS
stuff)... That's where I plan on concentrating my area of development,
regardless of what OS I use...          --Eet--
