Title: The AmiZilla Contest is almost $10,000 US!
Post by: Pyromania on March 17, 2006, 03:16:51 AM

The AmiZilla contest is almost $10,000 US! Programmers and students are hard at work porting this application. To give them more incentive and to push the contest beyond $10K DiscreetFX will be giving away a free product to the donator that gets it over the $10,000 mark.

The winner will be able to choose any DiscreetFX product they want for Amiga, Mac OS X or even TriCaster! Any DiscreetFX software product we offer will be available to the winner. The Amiga needs this browser to be successful and more mainstream. An OS without a robust modern browser is like a day without sunshine.

Best regards

DiscreetFX Team

*znort* *zz* hmm.. oh .. Is it stil on?  :-P

More seriously folks.. This project is *so* old there should be something to show us. So how about making a short Re-cap of what's been archived so far and reasonable estimation how long it'll likely to take before Amizilla exists and works ?
