Elbox would have to relinquish their specs for the Mediator and
SharkPPC to the MorphOS team. Given the fact that they have been
complete cnuts to everyone, including professional developers,
I doubt this is going to happen.
 
They get along with Amiga and Hyperion for the simple fact
that they all speak the same contrived marketing-speak language
of lies and bullshit to each other.

None of them actually give a shit about end users or developers
though, in my experience, just in the hard cash they can get by
roping in as many diehard users which will eventually mailbomb
developers into producing something.

In my personal opinion :)

job as a webdesigner or junior programmer somewhere.

The difficulty is finding a webdesigner or junior programmer position
open in the Leicester/Nottingham area. I was looking for tech support
(it's easy, no brainwork involved to fix a PC when your brain is the
size of a planet) but they all want me to drive. So, programming seems
to be the chore of choice, but they're thin on the ground unless you're
willing to a) learn COBOL or b) are a Visual Basic jockey.

Ah well. At least when I land a job they'll pay me well for doing
nothing strenuous :)
