Wait, so this is yet another existing case rebranded?

Seriously, aren't there companies where you can have custom case jobs made for you?

Considering how they are aiming at selling tons of the damn things, according to the cheerleaders, surely getting 10.000 cases made would net you a decent discount, right?

Wait, I'm confused - you're upset about pointless camp divisions, so you want it to move to Linux?


I think he meant 10 years ago.

I wasn't paying quite so much attention in 2002, but I don't recall the Linux community being less fractious then...


Linux itself? As in the kernel ? That's never been particularly fractious.

The various GUI stuff sure, but that'd be irrelevant to some sort of theoretical amiga thing, right?

I know it's not popular around here, but linux kernel plus a thoroughly amiga like UI would have been a decent way to go, at some point in the past.
