New Executive Update : Comment 57 of 64 | ANN.lu |

The problem with your statement is that very little third-party software has been actually integrated into the OS. Including third-party software on the OS3.9 CD does not imply that it has been "properly integrated into the OS". I can only think of NewIcons and ClassAct as third-party software that has been integrated into the OS. Miami/Genesis are NOT an integrated TCP/IP stack, they are a third-party TCP/IP stack INCLUDED in the OS distribution. The same goes for ACTION aka MooVid, Shell aka VincEd, and so on. |
