I'd agree with H&P here...they ahev the source to AmigaOS...so can put
features that tools such as DOpus-II have directly into the right places
paying for these 'ideas' - and they couldnt be used directly as they all
patch through the DOpus WB replacment system , wouldnt be too wise a move

...that 25k would fund the devlopment of their PC Windows venture...a
waste of money imho
