At the Melbourne Amiga User Group (MAUG) there's a poll who would buy Umilator (Bernie's Amithlon-successor) for upto 99 Australian Dollars if it would be available.

Umilator poll : Comment 11 of 50 | ANN.lu |

Huge in Amiga terms. Pretty everyone who uses Amithlon wants to see Umilator released, as the mailing lists would show you, not to mention all the people that expressed an interest here or on amiga.org.

'scuze me, but who said anything about anyone investing venture capital?
Besides, this poll is only reaching existing Amithlon users and the rest of our small Amiga community. It's hardly going to raise the sort of numbers that will make venture capitalists stand up and take notice.
Ultimately, until and unless there is *confirmation* that this poll has some real basis behind it, we're all wasting our time. So far, I have seen no indication that Bernie might have changed his stance at all, and I'm pretty certain his ex-partners haven't changed their position either. |
