Does someone want to tell me WHERE I was "ranting" in the post? It was actually quite matter-of-fact. I didn't say "Predictably, no new information was given" nor did I say "Typically, no new ... " or whatever, I stated a fact. The Q & A did not in fact give any new news whatsoever.

That's not a fact, that's your personal opinion. Note that I don't neccessarily disagree with your point of view regarding his matter, but here are some things that might be considered "news" by some of you readers:

AmigaOS4.1 will feature a state of the art set of support services for third parties to use when developing their browser clients. A default browser will ship and, whilst it will make full use of these services, the client function set will be basic. We have no intention of pushing our browser companies out of business.


I realise that my original comment was way to aggressive/arrogant, and I'm sorry about that. But my point still stands.

cgutjahr,

It sure does, that last bit was news to me. I know Fleecy mentioned a bit about the browser in one question (you know, the bi-weekly QA on amigaworld that's not considered news either by one ex-moderator), but this services stuff is definately news. In fact, it's more useful than just a browser would be.

Lets just say, if this was about BB or Gensi they where talking about, he wouldn't have dared to put "No new information is given.", though in fact, except for lots of name-dropping on BB's part, it was probably true.  :)
