[webmin-l] Due to Apple's M1, ARM is in the news again -- which led back to Webmin

[Liam P. <lp...@gm...>]

I can't remember where this came up in the news recently, but thanks
to the superb performance figures for macOS on Apple's new ARM Macs,
naturally people are talking about Linux on ARM, Linux on M1, Amazon's
Graviton server ARM chip and so on.

That led to some discussion of Corel's Netwinder, a small inexpensive
ARM server from the turn of the century.

What I did not know was that Webmin was part of the inspiration for
the Netwinder:

Sadly Corel did a deal with MS to licence VBA for WordPerfect Office,
and the terms of the deal included the cancellation of WordPerfect for
Linux, WordPerfect Office for Linux, Corel LinuxOS and the Netwinder.
