I thought he wanted something to *celebrate*, not mourn... :-)

I wonder when OS-9 was first released... (And no, not the Mac mis-named
%^*$&#* ) *that* would be much more fitting (IMNSHO) to celebrate...

And, OT-wise -- I wonder why they haven't released a version of OS-9 for
the Palm? It looks like they support all the devices (except maybe
requiring a new video driver) and I'd give my left testicle to be able to
program Basic09 on my IIIc...

Ah, well... sux to be me... ;-)
