Probably OS4, as Amiga aren't hobby programmers. Besides if Ralph Schimt
was ever involved in REAL bussiness, people would just think he acts like a

You REALLY don't get it do you? This will be IT. this will be the final

this.

Read David Gerber's statement, it has nothing to to with that. He a) doesn't
