:Again you're wrong. The IDE support is in the IDE ROM of FutureOS. Everybody can download it. The CPC Booster support is maybe few, but no questioin still existing in the core OS ROMs.
::"Few"?? So how can I use the CPC Booster in my own applications? I found NOTHING about this! You ignored the Coprocessor card completely. Regarding IDE: Yes, I know your IDE rom. As I said, the "support" is a simple BIOS function, not an OS feature at all. [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 18:59, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
:Further CBM is DEFINITLY a part of the OS. As the programmer of FutureOS I know it better than a person who wants again to fight aginst a concurent OS. I have also to revert the text.
::No, CBM is not a part of Fos :-) It is a piece of source code which has to be copied into the source code of the application. Would you say, that all RSX extensions ever developed in history are "a part" of Locomotive Basic, and would you list all these in the Locomotive Basic article?? No, definitely not!

:: Btw, CBM is not even like an RSX extension. As it has to be linked into the applications source code directly, applications are not updated automatically, if CBM is updated. You will have to compile the application with the new CBM sources again to make the update happen. And this is, what you call "a part of the OS"? :-) [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 19:09, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
:Further only the compatible and tested ROM expansions are listed. Joysticks are not ROM boards. And for sure the sos is not able to use them all. Or have you tried Super ROMbard Plus (provides ROMs with ROM selects 16-31)? The world it not that simple as you think.
::What's the problem with ROM select 16-31? Btw, why did you mention SymbOS here? (which "supports" 1-63 btw., but stupid to mention such nonsense). I still don't see any reason for listing the rom expansion. [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 18:59, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
