Thank you, Jimm. That was a very Zen discussion, and it illuminated certain
aspects of the Amiga that I have been in the twilight about. It's just how
you look at things, I guess.

Now, on to the meat. Here are some of those nasty "what" and "when" queries.
I don't expect answers, but it'd be nice:

(1) So, will we be seeing hardware windows in the Amiga?

(1a) When?

(2) Is there currently work being done on a hardware independent graphics
    library?

(2a) Does it emulate the blitter?

(2b) When can we expect to see it?

(3) What about the rumor of AMigaDOS and UNIX concurrently at some trade show?

(3a) How much of a bozo am I for giving it any credibility?
