Ah, I didnt make the connection between GIMP and S&M.
I took the irony reference to be about a dislike of Linux, but still using GIMP.

Perhaps its *you* that knows a little too much about S&M?   :P
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

I'm getting sick of any new product released that is aimed at Amiga users having all this count down to release bull**** going on. A-EON and the X-1000, ACube and the X-500 and now Commodore USA. It's wearing thin.
Amiga 4000, Warp Engine 040/40MHz, CV643D with scan doubler module, Tocatta soundcard, Deneb, 72Meg fast ram, 18 gig scsi hard drive.

3xA500, 1xA1200, 1xCD32

I'm still waiting for Barry to say that famous line, "It's better than OS X!".

CUSA. I can take them or leave them, mostly I like how they irritate certain people in the OS4 community. But wow, for somebody to feel so threatened by CUSA that they put the domain into the site censor list is really pathetic. Seriously, this is one of the saddest things I've ever seen on any site, ever.


Joke has now been reversed.

Most people don't realise that the cube is 3 dimensional and not just left and right? I can't imagine using 20 sides of a cube in 3D!

I probably should have said Icosahedron. :lol:

I love how the "included software" that the page makes to sound like a painstakingly assembled productivity suite is pretty much all right from the repository. I'm sure no expense was spared in making sure the check boxes in Synaptic were really clicked.

Oh it must have taken them ages to build the script that will automate it. Someone over on their forum did bring up a good point about where the updates will be coming from.

I imagine they would be coming from Conical or Mint repro's. I can't see CUSA doing it. Because lets face it they are offering no other support other than the forum community and a link to the Mint forums.

It should be fun to see the OS experience develop and improve in front of your eyes.
This may be the funniest attempt at being "diplomatic" I've heard. "Yeah, we couldn't be bothered to put together a non-default icon set for release, despite the fact that Commodore-ish theming is quite literally our only selling point, but hey! Won't it be fun to watch us catch up after the fact?"

I guess it'd be tacky to bring up that "24/7 support" was promised over and over.

What do you mean? Of course there's 24/7 support! You can post on the Mint forums any time, day or night!
