On Mon, 19 Apr 1999 10:31:08 -0700, Chuck Davis <roshicorp@roshi.com> jammed
all night, and by sunrise was overheard remarking:

California 30,866,851 (1992 census), Germany 82,079,454 (July 1998 est.).
So no, not even close. Though there are more people in New Jersey than
Finland (but not quite as many as Sweden).

And for a company launching a new non-PC computer system, this is
especially significant if you combine the fact that California`s literacy
rate is lower (97% versus 99%), while fewer households in Germany have
computers (50% versus 25%). Not to mention the fact that Microsoft is far
stronger in the USA, especially California, than Germany. That adds up to
many more customers.

would be nice, too. (though mr. haynie said it`s too big for the rom.)

btw, is it possible to make the window frames on beos a bit slimmer? they take
away a bit much of the screen area, imho.

OTOH the kernel can only be done by Be themselves, whereas video
and audio drivers could be written by, e.g, Andy or Dave.
