A simple example of a language that did that is German. They had a 27th character called the es-zett which looks like a beta. It was used for a dual s. It has been deprecated, and now you just use two s characters instead.
Um, bullshit?
The uses of the es-zet were straightened out a bit with tha latest "reform", but it is still alive and kicking. Groß, Maß, Fußball,... There is even a new capital ß that was introduced by the german version of ISO (DIN). Not in wide use, but it is official.
Consider also the Free Software Office Suite, "Open Office." It seems to do a lot of things right. However, it is still unable to open files made by the industry standard (and closed source) Microsoft Office.
Weird, I just reviewed a 40 page Word 97 Document on this Linux laptop computer using OpenOffice 1.0. No problemo.
Am I missing some elaborate joke?

Kyro 2 is about to do just thet. The recent benchmarks are quite impressive, same speed or even faster in high resolutions at about 1/2 of the GF3 price
Not too bad.
