Conspiracies? No, those require organization. What I do see is a bunch of cry babies making a lot of noise.

If you're trying to be funny, don't quit your day job.

Thanks for the history lesson, but now it's my turn. Amino ceased to exist when they bought the rights to Amiga technology and patents and changed their name to Amiga Inc. This happened quite some time ago and for someone who seems to know so much, I would have assumed you'd know that by now.
And as for Amiga Inc's investments I have no idea what they spend their cents on but it seems to me that they have a lot invested in AmigaOne/OS4 and it's future (ie, their name and reputation is resting on the success of the AMigaOne/OS4). Hyperion and EyeTech need Amiga Inc just as much as Amiga Inc need them. Hyperion and EyeTech need the Amiga name and Amiga's centralized distribution lines, dealerships and leadership.
The next gen Amiga's will be made by a trio of companies that all need each other and it's a great example of how capitalism works. The pre-payment vouchers are an excellent idea and will really help them gauge the demand for the products. I really do hope they reach the 10,000 unit mark but I understand that's extremelly optimistic. Still, I wish them the best of luck.
>>Long live Amiga
>don't u mean long live the amiga community
You call this a community? Let's get some new Amigas out there and then we'll have a community to talk about. Right now we have nothing.
