Saying "it reminds me of VMS" is something different than what I read into it. Saying "being based on OpenVMS" smells of theft, and like I said, ExecSG is a completely new kernel.


It's also understandable how, someone repeating my original statement, could have evolved into an accusation of thievery.  After all, a similar statement from Dave Haynie resulted in the accusations against MorphOS.

Hey, I can't BELIEVE you don't understand what Dave means here. Let's just say that DaveP most probably DO know more IBM production managers than you do.


Hey, what are you talking about?
I'm sure he DO.  Since I don't know any.  Nor did I claim to.  Nor do I want to.

Try looking for anyone named Dave P on amigabooks.org

Why? He has his involvement in amigabooks.org in his signature.

, followed by a search for that name (in quotes) and the word amiga on google. Like this: http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Dave%20Pitcher%22+amiga

Er... Ok, now what was your point again?
Oh, maybe I'm supposed to be impressed, was that it?

Now read the mozdev summary out loud to yourself 4 times.

I don't read things out loud unless I am reading to someone else. Maybe you need to read things four times before the information is stored in your brain, but thankfully I am somewhat more evolved than that.  :-)

However, I still don't understand your point.  I realise that English isn't your first language, so maybe you should explain it to someone else and then they can type it out for you.

Hi Dave, sorry to have blown your cover :-)

Yeah, he kept it well hidden, huh?

Hello Atheist,

This place is cheap for parts in Vancouver:

cheap tower case


Know of any other place in Vancouver that has a good website and cheap parts (apart from ncix.com)?

Hehehe.. yeah. Thats human nature for ya!

A lack of logical and normal thinking. I submit two new terms.

Spockification: the process (taking quite a number of years I might add) whereby the insane human thought process is morphified into logical sane based thinking.

Spockified: the completion of that process. This means you have mastered logical and sane based thinking.

@SlimJim

Well said and good suggestions.

It hasn't been announced anywhere but Fleecy has determined, even before the first CAM was released, that we will eventually release the CAM contents to the general public.  He said after an issue is released, the previous issue should be opened up to the public.  However, I believe (and you'll probably hate me for it ;-) but I pride myself on honesty) that two issues should pass before the third-last CAM issue is released to the public so as to underscore the value that Club members get.

In the end, Fleecy will decide what the period of revelation is but trust me, you will see what is in the CAM issues once CAM members have digested it.  :-D

@HMetal

Actually I agree with you, holding onto the data for 2 months is smarter than one.  Gives a real incentive for first-adopter personalities to jump in.  1 month people will wait for, 2 months will drive many of them nuts.

Guys, may I politely request that this conversation pick up in a new thread?  

It's gotten a bit rough trying to follow the topic.  Maybe a CAM thread :-P
Regards,
Targhan

Wow you just proved the rule that there are none so
blind as will not see.

Are you any closer to reputting your points without
silly insults? I'm looking forward to answering when
you manage it.
Hate figure. :lol:

Hello olegil and Eric_Z

I've had my A2000 for 14 years, I'm sure my A1, will last just as long!!  :-)

AmigaOne! Trodden but not forggotten!
\\"Which would you buy? The Crappy A1200, 15 years out of date... or the Mobile Phone that I have?\\" -- bloodline
So I guess that A500, 600, 1000, 2000, CDTV, CD32, are pure garbage then? Thanks for posting here.

1 Gig. ECC PC133 Registered 168PIN SDRAM
316.80 + 14.5% tax = 316.80 + 45.94 = $362.74 Can
or $247.4 USD
or 154.02 UKP
or 224.12 EU

Seems like a great deal to me. I'm gonna load my machine with 2 of them. (Not joking.)

My current machine has 1 Gig, w98se. I'm stuck with a DDR ECC Reg. 1 Gig., because this MB can't use it. Apparently 98 only uses 256, maybe 512, I bet bg doesn't even know.

Thanks Darth_X.

"The Computer Paper" is the best place to find local deals. I think it would be quite hard to beat this place!

I should have enough by October for my monster setup.  :-)

I have to go AmigaOne because, I see in the future an A1 at the heart of a mainframe server, with hot swappable harddrives, where you could pull ALL of them out and stick in new ones, and on USB, all other devices, what more could you possibly want? (64 bit) :-)

Welcome to the OS that never sleeps!

AmigaOne! An OS ready for any challenge, from below!!!  :-D  :-D

Wow, Lando. You really ARE dumb. This whole discussion started with YOU trying to impress US with the fact that Carda knows IBM production managers. DaveP commented that you should give him names and he would ask around and then tell you excactly HOW many percent of IBM production managers those people are. You said he was embarassing himself saying something like this. Then I comment that his email address in fact contains the word "ibm". Hmm, GUESS who is embarassing himself. Oh, and you're right. English is in fact my THIRD language, and I have german and japanese as fourth and fifth. Sadly, I am still struggling with Japanese. I do, however, feel I have more or less gotten to a point where I can write simple english sentences and expect to be understood. Your ignorance amazes me, though. Like, kaWOW, dude. :-P
