Well, I appreciated your grettings, my point was that we should give equal
credit to all-platforms, including Mac, QNX, etc.
I think that I made my point and I agree will all opinions!
BTW, I hope that I can make it this summer to the dirty-old-town (Atha Cliath)
(well, it's getting more clean and expensive with the years) and see Martin's
presentation, that BTW looks cool! :-)
Thanks to all.
