[Coco] Software offer and Drive Pak solution

[Little John]

I'm just having fun guys - don't let me offend you - my son thinks the world 
of this list. I just popped in to see what was going on (after I convinced 
him to give me his email password). I can't wait until he gets home and 
see's the new 12x32 building I've had set up for him to connect all of his 
vintage toys in :)

Extinguisher?
 We don't need no steeeenkin' extinguisher!

 Frankly, I'm surprised anyone was able to decipher that mess.

 Gotta love WebMail!

It's just a name guys - W.I.N.E. stands for Wine Is Not an Emulator, 
L.A.M.E. used to mean Lame is not An MP3 Encoder. Obviously, LAME has always 
been an MP3 encoder and WINE an emulator of sorts - it's not worth arguing 
about, right :-) It's just good old classic GNU naming. (I think anyway - if 
I'm wrong feel free to light me on fire with the flames that often fly 
around here... I have an extinguisher handy) ----- Original Message -----

from the page you linked to... "Wine's not that kind of emulator" Meaning, 
it's ANOTHER kind, meaning it's still an emulator. It's not a full 
emulation, as in CPU and hardware emulation, or virtual machine, but it's an 
API-level emulation. If it was not, they would've put right on that page, 
that it was NOT an emulator. Instead, they say "Wine's not that kind of 
emulat or" > -- Coco mailing list Coco at maltedmedia.com
