Over at amiga.org, the signature "takemehomegrandma" has published a somewhat satirical post - for your enjoyment, here goes:
I want to apologize that the AmigaOne has still not been released (A1 mobos+OS4). I also want to apologize to our competing companies that we have accused for crimes in public without being able to back those accusations up with either proof or legal action. I also want to apologize for not keeping our promises to you developers who bought our expensive SDK's. I also want to apologize to the users who bought our coupons, ehrm, JOINED OUR CLUB, but has not been given anything of the promised. I also want to apologize for the confusion when our offices suddenly were empty and our phones went dead (but that was a result of hackers, remember). Amiga Inc is truly a global 24 hours a day company and the future looks brighter than ever for our beloved AMIGA. We are pleased to announce a Games Pocket Pack to our friends Micro$ofts Pocket PC. This truly shows what a great commitment our 3000 content developers has to our beloved AMIGA. Wonderful things are about to happen as allways. Thank you, as allways, for your support. Keep the AMIGA spirit, and remember to follow our trademark wherever we go. We are AMIGA. You are AMIGA (if you pay us 50 bucks). We will be back with more exciting announcements during the next weeks. See you then! /Yours McBill
Well, there you go. Merry christmas!

"Season's Greetings from Amiga HQ": Hm? : Comment 101 of 220 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Björn Hagström on 26-Dec-2002 16:48 GMT | In reply to Comment 98 (Fabio Alemagna): > What are "these kind of rants"?
Rants that proves no other purpose than to further open the wounds that has
been ripped through our community. Spewing fuel on the fire of hatred that
exist between the different factions. And intentional or not only gives
a pat in the back on the people who enjoy the hatred.
> Bjorn, you really seem to enjoy childish fights, don't you?
No but you do, otherwise you would not go on and on with arguments like this
all the time. No matter how wrong or out of context you are.
> Do you want
> people to believe that you prefer to click everytime on the various links
> instead than havbing the settings saved in a cooky?
This has absolutely nothing, nothing at all to do with the image of Ann. Why
do you keep bringing this up. Because you enjoy "childish fights" ? My
settings are totally irrelevant to anyone else but me.
> I mean, do you really think people are SO stupid?
What does that has do do with anything here?
> You're right, I have no way to know whether you're just silly or smart enough
> to have the settings saved, but I DO know that you constantly follow all the
> sections, I just assumed you were smart enough to have the settings saved.
What settings I have or not has absolutely nothing to do with the image of
ann. Didn't you read it all the times I wrote that before? Or did you just
ignore it because you never ever are able to see any other view than your own.
You are stuck on the same track going on and on and on as you usually do.
> But if you say that that's a wrong assumptions, ah well, then I apologize
> for having trusted in your intelligence.
Totally unrelated again.
