Only one comment?

This guy is a trooper. Props to him.

Now if someone would port World of Warcraft to AROS, I could drop Windows once and for all. :)

Nice interview. Also good exposure for AMC which is multi-platform and based on the excellent Hollywood software (or so I believe).

Well done to Paolo and Fabio! (and Andreas)
