AmiWM is open source, someone that can actually code should pick it up and turn it into a good environment that would rule!  Always liked the look of it.

I stand (somewhat) corrected, it is still kind of under development.  Latest newsflash.

Hmmm... I downloaded "Commodore OS" ages ago and it didn't take 6 hours. Musta been the "beta" version. ;) I installed it on my Lenovo SL-510, so I didn't need a C64x or "Amiga" to run it.

So, no "value-add" from CUSA for me...

Now, if they replaced Linux DOS with something not case-sensitive with commands readable as English and a directory structure that made sense, threw in some datatypes and all the other goodies that made Amiga so enjoyable, there might actually be a "value-add" in there for me.

But we all know that AIN'T gonna happen. :)

What about COS2, will it still be something other than Linux and is there any time scale for the arrival of that?

Cheers

Maybe they can do a KDE based disc next. You know.. "Kommodore Does Everything".

Hey, that's not so bad.. I should write that down before they steal it.

There are also the medibuntu stuff (for googlemaps, win32 codecs, etc.  The things that aren't enabled by default in normal ubuntu due to not having US friendly distribution licenses.)


What's the betting pool that Barry haven't paid for proper licensing for these things?

@runequester

I'd check with the license owners just to be sure.
