To OP
Hey this is really interesting news and a feat to get it so close to a potential release! This should have been done 4+ yrs ago imho.. Well i'm sure the Amiga community would embrace it and there naturally will be sales. Optimized versions for OS4 and Morphos would be nice and a gui is a must.

I guess all things have their time. And now maybe its finally Roadshows time for the Classic Amiga crowd. The one thing I have learned being in the Amiga scene since 1988 is that the market never seems to die. It somehow stays alive. I think properly presented 68k Roadshow will be received well. Good luck. A gui is really important, i'd like to mention again :)

Nordic Global aka Holger Kruse
Miami

  Having met Holger Kruse at many US Amiga shows over the years. I purchased Miami DX through his registration system. I NEVER received my keyfile. Holger and Nordic Global were completely non responsive to emails. I learned from other amigans at conventions that there were many people out there this happened to and Holger dissapeared.  well...

At one Amiga show in St Louis, Holger somehow appeared or something. I remember cornering him at a party and asking him why people didtn receive keyfiles or an explanation.. Well his explantion for the poor business practice was " I had all the registration software and names on my Amiga 1200hd and it died along with the drive and all the data. No backup"  I kid you not. I think thats the last Amiga show he was seen at as well.  Wild..

Thanks for the speed comparisons very interesting and good illustration of Roadshow speed. Can i ask you again why it is that you decide to release this NOW instead of back in 2003 when everyone was trying to get you to? Before the last of the amigans jumped ship?

Ok. Good news. Flawless DHCP is very important.  Also a good installer. And last but not least as I said before take the time and do a gui for the stack. In amigaworld this is important. Just look up countless gui threads..the last thing anyone wants to do after spending $30=$40 on a tcp stack is manual configs

This was discussed months ago and it was ready months ago. What in the world could take so long? You are losing a lot of momentum.
