I could be talking out of my rear but aren't some of those basic functions contained in the ROM's too ?
Most of the OS libraries are included in the ROMs - I think the software on the disk is just miscellaneous tools, the file manager, and the CLI.
Computers: Amiga 1200, DEC VAXStation 4000/60, DEC MicroPDP-11/73
Synthesizers: Roland JX-10/MT-32/D-10, Oberheim Matrix-6, Yamaha DX7/FB-01, Korg MS-20 Mini, Ensoniq Mirage/SQ-80, Sequential Circuits Prophet-600, Hohner String Performer

So this is it? Amiga.org has become a forum for thiefs and naysayers?
Yeah, pretty much. It's not like the money would be going to the people who actually made OS3.1, anyway.
