Are there still a lot of people > making machines for it? There's a not so nice and very educational story to be told there. While still in beta, the developer of Buzz suffered Major data loss. All source code wiped out. No version control software, no backups. End of story. So, nothing has been really happening to it. Some people have created binary patches for some problems in Buzz, but that's about it on the development side. People are still using it and writing machines for it though. http://www.buzzmachines.com/ (Disclaimer: I've not used Buzz myself, this is 2nd hand knowledge from a friend. If someone contradicts what i just said, they might be right!) btw. The FAQ has a section for using Buzz under Linux: http://web.hibo.no/~mva/viewreview.php?id=706 -- Sampo Savolainen <v2@xxxxxx>
