Stefan Robl, author of the cutie AmiDock tool shipped with AmigaOS 3.9, posted on his site that a nice Eastern egg can be found in it... ... it is funny, isn't it? :)

That's nothing. My USB driver has an Easter Egg too. You people don't get all bent out of shape when *other* developers include unnecessary code, but when a certain Amiga third party product developer does it noooooooo, it's a ""Trojan"" when they do it. When they do it it's sooo bad, but everyone does it and it's cute! I see a double standard here.

Without wishing to drag the whole Elbox saga up again, that code
only trashed the RDB. Call me old fashioned, I don't even use them.
All the most important data is still there.
Can I hear the word "mountlist" ? ;)

I took the Engine out of your car, your car is not damaged however, and you have a wrench, right? Who doesn't own a wrench?
Happy Easter :)

Cool Egg! I'm surprised nobody had found it previously! Looking forward to seeing the new version of AmiDock in OS4. (This time maybe we'll find the easter eggs without you telling us :)

Whats stopping you ? I haven't heard of anyone getting their RDB trashed without trying ( e.g. running demo's of the codes existence / poking the drivers around ) ... If you have beef with elbox ( e.g. Got your RDB trashed ) take it up with them , not on a completly unrelated thread.

As usual its just a another load of misinformed bollocks. I bet
anonymous doesn't even own or ever planned to own a mediator.
I'm perfectly happy with my system. No trashed RDB in the past two
years.

In reply to Comment 12 (Rob):
I think Mr. Anonymous was referring to the fact that if you use mountlists instead of an RDB, you can't boot from the disk. So he wasn't trolling, he was replying, and he seems to be better informed than you do...
