Unless Bill and Fleecy learned to code in the last 12 months, AmigaOS is dead.


A bloke I worked with in London in 1999/2000 said he worked with a bloke back home in Scotland called "Fleecy Moss", and this Fleecy was a masterful genius at coding.

Whether it's the same fella I dunno.


Sure it's the same guy... you do know that "coding" is Scotish slang for Bullsh1ting, right? ;-)

He had no reason to make it up though.  He knew nothing about Amiga's, and up to that point knew nothing about my interest in them either as I'd only just started working with him.

Mark (the scottish bloke) was a Java programmer though, which as everyone knows isn't real programming! ;-)


Java is to programming, what etchasketch is to art...

With modern PDAs and Phones being introduced with 3D chips, the whole idea of AmigaDE's cheesy game packs seem less and less relevant to a modern market.
