It certainly does look good, except that intuition nor layers have been made
for PPC yet (no surprises there then, esp. Intuition!!) so it does indeed
look inviting and could give eventually my classic Amiga the benefit of my
PPC. (Which usually sits there keeping my machine warm, but not much else
unless I feed it a MPEG video, MP3 or game of Quake to process... ;)
Just one problem though: How the heck do you uncompress it? I mean why not
stick it in LHA or LZX format? Instead we have something in tape archive
bz2 (BZip 2) format? How the hell do i uncompress that thing!
It's a .tar.bz2 file. And gun zip doesn't help either. :-( Any ideas?
