OpenPCI 1.0 and OpenPCI 8139 Device 1.0 released : Comment 25 of 41 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Bill Hoggett on 10-Feb-2003 22:09 GMT | In reply to Comment 21 (Rat): What a sad idiotic moron you are!
Ever asked yourself _why_ Elbox chose to develop the drivers they did?
Because the documentation is easily available for free, that's why!! Ergo, that same reason is why everyone else is developing the same drivers.
If you can get all the documentation off 3Com, for nothing, be my guest!
Elbox produced the first drivers. Great. That doesn't give them a patent for ALL Amiga drivers for those cards. Perhaps their cries of "foul" would carry more credence if they actually paid the developers *THEY* ripped off, like the Picasso96 team. :( |
