| Amiga announces new Vice President of Engineering : Comment 35 of 53 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by Ben Clarke on 06-Dec-2001 09:53 GMT | I really think people should stop getting upset about the lack of "news" from Amiga inc. After all, "no news is good news".
Also, why's everyone getting the impression we've lost the Sharp deal? I see it mentioned all over. Ok, so most of the time they refer to the Zaurus as running the Elate system from Tao, rather than saying AmigaDE, but I don't believe that means that AmigaDE is not there. As Tao themselves said, "Amiga is our most important customer". AmigaDE adds the content and value to what otherwise could be "just another OS".
Hiring is good. How many companies are making people redundant right now?! Amiga has taken on a new member of staff, and what's more is attending a careers fair. You simply can't go out hiring people if you know you can't pay them. And you certainly don't spend valuable cash going to careers fairs if you don't have every intention (and the necessary resources) to see the process through to actually employing people.
As for the people who bring up the subject of Microsoft's JVM and it's proprietary additions and so on... it's not Sanjay's fault!!! Come off it! The decision to bastardise the JVM that Microsoft shipped was no doubt a high level decision made specifically with the intention of scuppering Sun and its whole Java crusade. The people who worked on the JVM were no doubt told from above to make it happen.
So Sanjay: welcome to the Amiga community. I can only apologise for those people who will judge you before you've even had the chance to prove yourself. |
