Anyone who's read my previous post will know the trouble I've had so far. Bearing in mind that most people are used to just putting a CD in the drive to signup, What is the easiest way for them/me to get online with an Acorn? If there is no easy way, then how can Castle and RiscOS Ltd be serious about getting people away from PC's?
More and more people are going Online and if the Acorn platform can offer no quick and easy way of doing this, then it cannot survive and expand. I can honestly say, that if Windows was a stable OS, then I would not even considered trying the Acorn platform. |

The 'easiest' way is via the Argonet solution.
But it will cost you.
But there are advantages - see my article in the comms section. |

Well i think that you said the true, actualy ARM is not the fasyer processor of the world, like years ago... i know that is hard for RISC OS Ltd make software at windows level (and for 3rd party too) but the war is in at, and actualy if Gates will have serious problems with U.S.A. Governement we will have a chance like Apple, Be OS, Linux, NetBSD etc... but we are back also Apple, Be OS, Linux, and NetBSD! so i think that the RISC OS and other have to work about this not about windows (that for now is the winner with all other systems). |
