    > Ok, I'll bite, name one feature that you miss today from AmigaOS.

    Screens. Datatypes. 256 kernel-programmable priority levels. Plug-in kernel schedulers. ENVARC in ramdisk... as a browseable filesystem rather than a registry.

    AmigaOS is so fucking cool it's amazing.

  14. Re:SHALL I use GIF or TIF or something else? help! on Running a Business on Open Source Software? · · Score: 1

    Use good old IFF or ILBM.

    Who knows how long BMP will last anyway? It would suck if Windows bit the bigone and Linux discontinued (or at least made uncommon) the BMP format.

    IFF and ILBM have been around since the Jurassic period.
