| Hell yes! White case is really nice.
The last week i just remembered MOL. I tried it on OS X to run OS X in OS X : D
Could we reanimate the project to run OS X 10.5 with openGL ? Then we should try to reanimate the Darwine project. Some examples worked already and as far i know we can run Unix stuff on AmigaOS 4.
Darwine(PPC) was a mix of Qemu and Wine for Darwin/Os X. _________________ AROS Broadway - AEROS - Aminux - AmiCloud - indieGO! Appstore - AmiWallet - VAN lossless video codec - AMC Amiga media Center -KrypUnite - LibertyNet - MinX - amigaNX |

It's not that much about ecology, it's about convince, speed and reusability. My spare disk can store more magazines that my flat can. I can have paper book, because I treasure books, magazines are disposable. _________________ OpenWindows Initiative. Port PS3 hardware to bananas. For free.

A new report from the United States Postal Service Inspector General finds that U.S. postal employees have been using their USPS credit cards for private travel and personal expenses.
One worker used his card to make more than 50 purchases at "adult entertainment establishments." Another bought an Apple computer and paid his mortgage. A group of employees flew their families and friends to Spain and Italy. |

Off-topic, sure. But in the U.S. the postal service is unique because of all goverment agencies it can not borrow. It must fund retirement in advance with "cash".
No idea if the above article mentions that. Just posting a "grabber" heh.
Ahh...and in a failing economy where it has been a buyers' market for only the best employees and managers (thereby guaranteeing improvement lol) we see the result:

| i think now and in the future, that a professional and commercial company should inform their customers and interested people by their site and not by paper mags. if there are some important news, these should be printed on A-Eon website like any other company. After that, they can make article and news on all online and paper mags they want.

Amazing cultural difference on opposite sides of the pond. Americans as a whole prefer showers vs bathes because showers are quick. New hotels only offer rooms with showers now. I shower daily but I can't remember the last time I took a soak in the tub, might have been over twenty years ago, perhaps thirty years ago.

americans should take a bath every once in a while, i guess. bathing as eating is essential element of high culture and helps to easy out. see ancient romes gigantic thermes, for instance: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baths_of_Caracalla please dont imply that it is a communist attitude that eventually led to a downfall.. ;P

I'm eager for the update, but I think this is basically just a way of engineering an exclusive for Amiga Future, out of goodwill for what is probably the last remaining Amiga print publication.
I think it's cute to be honest - but then, I'm nostalgic for the days when I bought Amiga Format, Amiga Power, CU Amiga, etc..
The only way AF can get scoops is if people like A-Eon let them be the first to announce stuff. Whether this is endearing or annoying/overindulgent depends on your attitude to print as a medium _________________ My new blog |
