- You seem still not to be through, that we are talking of wishes for a *NEW*
- operating system ? This means, that such things like ToolsDaemon etc.
- possibly won't work, as in the docs of it this is told. It's a HACK.
-
- And most things, which are programmed and available right now, are done,
- because the system software lacks of it. SO WHY NOT INCLUDE THIS INTO THE
- NEW SYSTEM SOFTWARE ????? Sorry for shouting, but I have read such posts
- that often now, that I am asking myself why everybody is so scared to see a
- new OS with new features *built-in*, so I want anyone to hear it now. Do
- you think that would hurt to have those things come with the OS ? Why
- making a commodity, that eats up memory for creating additional menus, if
- the OS could come with a full user-interface to all menus ?
-
- Why forcing the user to buy AFS or PFS (costs extra) when the OS could come
- with a decent MultiUser-VeryFast filesystem ?
-
- Wondering.....
