it would have been more epic if you were in #amiga instead :D


looks neat though.  What features does it have and how is the stability/ease of use
I am a negative, rude, prick.

Not my screenshot, though that is a channel I haunt :) The screenshot was done by Shadow(aka GeoShadow), the maker of the program.
 
It appears to be very easy to use and work good, the TCP/IP stack is included. There are not many features at this time as it is a first release with IRC support, but Shadow is still working on it. There is a C.S.C thread if you are interested.

I have the unshakeable urge to dust off my old C64 and to download GEOS...

Must... RESIST...!

Wow.  Maybe now I have to get hold of a RR+RRNet after all...

And, wow, Vanessa Ezekowitz is still active too (assuming that's her on the IRC screen shot)

If you only need ethernet, the 64nic+ is a cheaper route (when available again).

Vanessa is definately still active, she has been a big help with my tower project. That's her in the screenshot.

Heres to hoping availability part 2 isn't as much of a flamewar mess as last time :D

As long as flash is told to jog on it's all good ;)

This is as retro as it gets, IRC on a C64. I'm sold, what's the best cart to use with this then?
