Btw, here is the original German interview:

KennyR! Most frequent poster on this forum!

While I recall a general story similar to the google translate of Papiosaur's post, it doesn't perhaps answer your question?

I don't know myself, but I think it's a *very* clever name, for several reasons. And I really like the logo!

I kind of picture the "Boing Ball" as a dried-up cocoon that after it stopped bouncing, it cracks open, and from which the Morpho butterfly climbs up, spreads its wings, and fly away!

;-)

Long time no see KennyR :)

Hey cato! How's life?

I actually died of boredom four years ago. The shell you see before you is simply a collection of old pizza boxes and pencil shavings animated by its sheer hatred of all living things.

Uhm... is Gelb going to show up now? :)

So one of three different possibilities are true:

1) Nobody thought up the name. It was the result of a group-think session. As the results of old group-think sessions tended to fall within 99% of Ralph's ideas, it was probably Ralph.

2) Whoever thought up the name didn't want to get credit. In that case, probably Ralph, who never takes credit for anything.

3) Nobody wants to admit who made up the name in case they get teased. Again, probably Ralph.

Ooh, I'd have so many requests for Gelb ;) Too bad it's been that long that I can't remember what they were...

Hi Gelb! Now when you're here and MorphOS supports reading graphic memory stats too, how about GraphicsMemoryGauge? =) I still love to use your MemoryGauge sbar and can't get default graphics mem sbar module to look the same ;)

Hey Gelb,

now we need to lure ToDi in here

Still breathing, but pretty boring here too :) its work, eat, bathroom, watch shitty downloaded tv shows, etc.

I got a glimse of less boredom when i bought a 3D printer 2 years ago and got a few creative brainsparks going :)

Nice to see you again :)
I see Gelb and Ingo also are alive :)
