Here is a great interview of Fleecy by Temple of Tech editor Vidar Langberget.

Read it here

I like Fleecy. He's neat. :-)

[Rodney]

Yup, fleecy is neat .

Does anyone have any detailed information on WHAT ACM is?

From what fleecy said its not exactly like COM, so i guess in someways it is like COM? Its like a interface to other parts of the system or something?

Where can i find inforation on this? Whas this existant in other AmigaOS versions? Could i find this in the OS3.1 manual?

Im actualy looking for links atm Ill post here some that i find

A Message from Fleecy Moss

The only interview I could find was a year old.

[Coder]

I like Fleecy. He's neat.

He sure is. I have seen him talk about Amiga in the flesh. But I still would like to see Bill in reall.

What about statement from Mr Francis Wilde (AMIGA Inc chairman of the board)?
He have not released any public statement on the company.

Q 16-------Compelling product.
I loved my original TRS-80 Radio Shack computer.
It had programable voice recognition.
It had voice response.
It could be programed to control all AC outlets.(including dimming lights)
It could be programed for games.(space invaders)
It could be programed to control graphics right down to the indvidual pixal.
It could be programed to use voice recognition to play games,(blackjack,poker,Tic tac toe,chess,checkers)
It was FUN !! It was using voice reconition 20 years ago!

Of course BASIC was too slow for voice recognition so here's what it did---
YOU PROGRAMED everything in EASY TO USE BASIC (hint hint SHEEP),
then the program used machine language subroutines, and popped you right back in EASY TO USE BASIC.

ANYONE WHO WANTED TO DEVELOP FOR IT COULD "hook-up" with basic, AND DEVELOPERS DID that.

So here's a mind shattering thing readers of this can consider---
I had more FUN and could do more things with that 20 year old computer, then I could do NOW.
IF I buy an Apple TODAY will it COME WITH A BASIC?
IF I bought an I-Mac will there be thousands of developers that can "hook-up" to the BASIC that comes with the Mac?
If I buy it and want to PLAY WITH THE GRAPHICS, can I?
After I hook-up a DV camcorder and the information is in the computer memory, can I ALTER IT JUST FOR THE HELL OF IT, JUST FOR FUN?
NOT a "Paint program" ya' buy. F%@ THAT! YOU do it !

Q 16---Part 2

10 rem
20 line 10,100-10,300

If you've got someone standing holding a plasic water gun, and you wanted to get a "laser beam" effect this is all the programing you should need to do. THAT'S COMPELLING.
So can I do this NOW if I buy an I-mac? With the I-movie software? With the BASIC that comes with every Mac? Yet Apple can't make 'em fast enough to meet demand. There's so much more people should be ABLE to do.

Would Amiga consider doing SHEEP on nintendo Gamecube? What about PS2? They're going to make the system a linux OS computer.
What happened to ray tracing? Where the hell did my FUN go to? While people are waiting for a NEW computer from AMIGA how about SHEEP for the I-mac? As you might guess I own an I-mac, but then you'd guess wrong. All I have is an old AMIGA 500 !
Look , I'm in pain. For God's sake somebody help me.
I DON'T want a computer without firewire, who does?
And I don't want a computer without Basic/sheep.

So who has the answer? Apple? Wintel?
Computers are supposed t'get better all the time.
Are they ?
