Yeah... but still not TCP/IP.... :-(

I think I'll be both the offical spokeman and Troll of AROS :lol:


-Reply- We have a couple of peole working on TCP/IP... and Since Kals port of MESA is so good, I expect his TCP/IP to be cool to :-)

simple:
MUI is a comercal product and must be bought.

Zune was/is built and developed by AROS developers and thus free for anyone to use.

Zune is exactly the same as MUI, excpet we coded Zune it is open source and free. We don't charge for AROS or Zune... there are no royalties, no moaney to plough in to AROS development... :-(

There is no MUI code in Zune so it is perfectly legal.

OT, sort of:

What a beautiful statement on the state of the church (found at the news update site) treated like a toy and dreadfully broken:

I agree, it is a stunning beautiful image. I love the way it shows the old human ways dispalced by the future (as things should be) :-)
