| Great report from the man with the good news.
I would have loved to come over and shown iMica and IcAros, just money held me back sorry, saving it for driver development for Aros. How about next year, it is the 25th Anniversary

There was a recent version of PageStream for sale at the show. I didn't have a chance to test it out but there were native versions for AmigaOS 4.x and some other platforms. |

This is a point of CAPITAL importance.
They said that up to 30 people have been working on OS4 in the past and that today they arein the "upper teens", but can you imagine how farther we would be today if Hyperion didn't have to give money to lawyers (and used them on extra employees instead)?
I believe things will indeed change from now on! |

Eek! I don't want to make a habit of being a representative. This was probably just a one time thing. I prefer to be an independent professional software contractor.
That said, I don't mind these temporary gigs from time to time. Gives me a chance to practice public speaking and schmoozing.  |

PageStream is still in active development and is a real bargain price IMHO. You might want to check it out again. |

Not that I know of but the table was full of hardware at the show. I just didn't have the time to investigate everything so hopefully somebody else who attended can comment. |
