Re: [MiNT] Hm

[Katherine Ellis <kellis@fdn.com>]

Just to make it harder on ourselves.
To help ASH selling their product, denigrating MiNT.
To waste time, effort and headaches.

Oh yes, and by pride, so some may say that they code clean coz it works on
all OS.

I personally know that if my soft doesn't require one bit of the OS
peculiarity, I don't care. 
But If I have to rewrite half of my routine so it runs under magic as well
as it does under MiNT, nope. If a call is not present in magic or is too
complicated to use, I just don't do it.
But well, that's just me. and I do know that Julian would not agree with
me, I just don't have the time and patience he has, i guess.
