- This weekend I installed the Andrew Took Kit (available on CD for $50 from CMU)
- and it is absolutely incredible. The quality of this effort is beyond commercial
- grade. It's exquisite. You get a wonderful window editer, ez, a directory
- browser, bush, a mail reader, message, and about a trillion other things.
- Propeller head heaven!
-
- It's not just for propskulls, either -- ATK is in use on the Carnegie Mellon
- campus by many nontechnical folks.
-
- I'll try to say more later. For now I wanted to get out this big Thank You.
- A superb job beyond anything I've yet seen from a consortium.
