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 20 of 22 | ANN.lu |

We didn't receive anything either until we asked, and when we did, we usually got much more from Petro than we ever asked for or expected.
But that doesn't mean our user group didn't do a lot on it's own. It did and does, including members providing content, support (both material and financial) to each other, to help, entertain and support each other in our hobby. This time one of our members bought an SDK just so that we could demo it. She is not a programmer, so she has no other use for it.
The Saku events we used to host (and hopefully will host again in the future), were financially sponsored solely by our user group members, and all the demo machines etc were our own. But the added support (merchandising material, visits, fax messages, etc.) from Amiga made a huge difference in a market (Finland) where direct support from Commodore/Amiga has always been a rarity.
I have been discussing this with the current Amiga recently and they seem to agree, which comforts me. |
