Yes... I agree.  The BeOS is selling, Corel's Netwinder is selling.  I think
there is a *very* big market for MISC in the "computer geek" population.  Of
course, it *would* have to be fully Open Source.  A debugger in which you
can reflectively view the source code would also help here.

BTW, does anyone know what happened to the Homebuilt-L mailing list?
