And why is that? Amiga Inc could even resort to .net if things got real bad and they desperately needed a substitute. The point is that the hardware abstraction layer of modern OS'es (that excludes Win) is so powerfull that you could potentially switch kernel with a relatively small effort. Not entirely unlike making a Linux distribution for a previsuly unsupported platform. I think you're stuck in the "good-old-days". Wake up, it's not 1985 anymore. OS'es doesn't work like classic AOS or Win anymore.
And look everybody: some of us can take critisism. Go hack a PHP-nuke driven newsite instead of blaming me for the OS'es evolution.
Thanks for the support from varius people (allthough I was kinda rude). And I agree with Wayne, he shouldn't act as AO's friendly naybourhood Gestapo representative. Alltough that would have eliminated comment like the one I responded to, but I think everybody is entitled to an opinion, even if that opinion is that I shouldn't be allowed to have one (hmm..?). Anyway, again, my appologies if I offended any of the AO regulars. I wish I had access to free fiber 24h a day so I would watch AO formus like a hawk, unfortunately I don't (fortunate for others).
