:Indeed you are wrong, all these devices are supported by FutureOS, just connect it to the CPC. You can use them to control the Desktop or for foreigen programs. Naturally the Plus devices (analogue joystick etc.) are only usable by a CPC Plus. All devices can be accesseb by OS routines. See documentation. So I have to correct your updates, because they are just wrong. And by the way I'm waiting for an excuse for your insulting phrases. [[TFM|TFM]].
There is no sense in using a graphic tablet in a sprite converter like GMSK. But if you like this function included I can do that for you. The Grafpad is for entering graphical data or for fast selection. There is a routine (read ROM a documentation) which provide the desired features, it deals with keyboard and different joysticks. Only for the Grafpad there is at the moment no application available, but why don't you make one? [[TFM|TFM]].
<br>
::Thanks, that is what I wanted to know. So there is no routine in the OS available for applications to support the grafpad. But this is what I already said. So the grafpad, the mouse etc. can be removed from the "support" list. [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 21:25, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
However, this is NOT the question. FutureOS supports the Graphpad and the other applications. So please let me restore the article now. [[TFM|TFM]].
<br>
:::Not the OS supports it but the file selector module. This doesn't help me in an application at all. Or is Fos only a program starter? If it's only a program starter, then I am fine with the "support" list. Somehow it seems, that you don't know, what an OS is at all? [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 21:25, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
<br>The following hardware doesn't seem to be supported as well:

: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.
:''So, first you call someone a child and then you say 'sorry! I didn't know I'm insulting you'?? Consider this a warning, a blip more out of your fingers and you're banned for a couple of weeks before this turns into yet another flame. [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]]''
<br>Please read carefully! I didn't call anybody a child. I was talking about my subjective impression of the acting of another person. So why don't you ban Prodatron for some time, the effect would be the same. It would be peace again. He is insulting me constantly (by the way, you have been calling me that often stupid in the forum that I can't count it. Also you have used the F-word against me). So I'm the last person who should be banned because of insulting anybody elso. My forms are still some of the best here. But please don't start now a "We will calculate who was insulting more" discussion here. That would be to childish for me. And I DON'T call you a child. If you think that calling somebody a child is an insult, then you're just insulting children. I don't want to talk about the abilities of the brains of children too much, but be sure, they can do much more than you think and much more than a mature brain. [[TFM|TFM]].

:This is indeed a very good question! Now please ask yourself the same question! Surely it's not easy for you, because you are (as highest Admin of the CPC Wiki) in a role that must tell the last word in discussions. But do you really think that you're always right? Don't you think that your positon teases you to think that you're right, but is there also a thought in your mind that is questioning you if you are REALLY right? Think back at the GUI discussion and other things. Do you think you are right, only because you write it in an internet site? Question yourself my friend. (And there is no polemics. You seem to be thinking, and I appreciate this. But only more questions can induce more thinking, What do you think?). Well, for sure I did overreact here in the week I have been very sick, so I maybe saw too much attacks or insults. I'm always questioning me if I do right or not. Do you the same? Bye the way... I didn't call myself wiser, this is just a citation, may you know it, may not. I don't think that we are so different, me make the same errors and we do the same great work for the CPC. However, honest greets! A [[TFM|tfm]] that is looking forward to establish a positive kind of communication here.<br>

== Stop deleting applicatons ==
pdt stop deleting my applications without direct links!

:Demo videos are no applications. Should we mention every SoundTrakker song in the SoundTracker article? No. And Hero was not coded for Fos. Nice, that it can be started from Fos, but that's only because it doesn't require an OS at all after loading. [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 21:14, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
::Ok, if you really need to mention every single media file in this list it's fine for me. I could blow up the SoundTrakker article, the SymPlay article, the SymAmp article, the SymSee article etc. etc. by the factor 100 then, but that's just silly, never mind. But: Adding some bytes into the unused area of the Amsdos header of Hero does NOT make it to a FutureOS application! So remove it again. [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 22:11, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

=== To summarize all up: ===
- No need to delete regulary supported hardware, which everybody can use.
<br> If there is a need to improve the FutureOS article, the do it step by step and in agreement with other controbutors. There is no sense in just deleting parts of this article. The reasons provided are just nonsense. If somebody wants to improve then he should read the documentation first. This way less problems will appear. [[TFM|TFM]]. <br> <br> == CBM - a part of FutureOS == One thing first, we can discuss here much about CBM, but pdt please don't just delete the whole section of this article. That's for sure no improvement. Why is CBM a part of the OS? *90% of the needed routines are located in the core ROMs of the FutureOS. <br>*The different text-blocks (in all different languages) part of the single program. Since every single application uses different sentences, this is - no doubt - useful. <br>*Few routines of CBM are part of every single application. Why?&nbsp;It makes all applications more flexible.
