Sean takes exception to my "no doubt that microware supports its OEMs" statement and insists that I avoid such heresay. I made that statement based upon personal experience in porting 8-bit OS9 to the MILL-6809-enhanced Apple II. In that work, I found Microware to be 1000% more cooperative than other houses which with I've dealt. They supplied EVERY piece of source I asked for. I asked for only what I needed which, as I recall, included the kernel, disk driver examples, and the disk formatter. So, Sean, my experience differs. I believe this is because there's a great difference between a casual inquiry for productized packages and a situation involving a mutually-beneficial, negotiated contract.
