Czech Amiga News posted the following: "Kleng Hodnefjell asked Petro if 'Is it true that he quit ?' Here is the answer: 'Sorry but I have no plans to quit. I have only invested 50 % in Power Service, which is a company I believe in. It is no Computer Company and no competition... Power Service is a Job agency for IT Specialists. I will continue with my beloved AMIGA. Best regards and thanks for your mail...Petro'"

Petro not leaving Amiga : Comment 18 of 22 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Janne Sirén on 17-Sep-2000 22:00 GMT | >Or put it this way: Choose between the Gateway/Amiga products (merchandise)
>and the Amino/Amiga products (SDK, d´Amiga, AmigaOne coming up)...
One question: Why should we have to choose?
Of course we prefer the product, but user groups need support to keep going, and that has been lacking - I would prefer both product and support. And it's not only about merchandise, but other kinds of support as well. For example, it would be nice to have SDK's etc. borrowed to user groups for demonstration.
Petro used to be all over the place with his message of hope and he did lift spirits. That was important for the community. I'm not talking about mainstream marketing here, nor am I saying that products development isn't important. I'm just pointing out, that since Amiga decided all PR is handled through the U.S. HQ, user group support has diminished (do correct me if someone feels differently).
User groups have been responsible for a lot of good in the Amiga community over the last few years. I would hate to see them suffer before those new products hit the streets. I know Amiga recognizes their importance, but I'm not quite sure they recognize the potential in Petro as a user group support person. |
