It is probably very annoying for them when a computer that had been
airbrushed out of computer history pops up again, as bright and clever
as ever.
Open almost any general computer text book on operating systems,
multimedia, graphics, etc and you will find no indication that the Amiga
ever existed. Lots of people wish it hadn't ever existed.
But IMO it's still too soon to start shouting. There needs to be a lot
more of the DE ready to show than we have so far. When there are DE
screenshots it will be time to argue.
