- More like: Received new updates from the employees working on their own
- time after the company stopped official development. Have probably the
- best overall C compiler, debugger, etc. for the platform. Get excellent
- support over the net, again from employees donating their own time.

- As for "sticking with the Amiga", although it may give you warm fuzzies,
- companies are under no obligation to stick with anything if it does not
- make money. If you want companies to sell products for the Amiga,
- enough people have to be willing to buy them to make it worthwhile.
