As reported at amiga.org:
http://www.murphyauctions.net/amiga.html
Seems to be a list of useful but dated PCs, printers and furniture with a few PDAs thrown in.
I guess they will be most upset by the loss of the foosball table.

| Amiga Inc auction items : Comment 45 of 70 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by 3seas on 04-Jun-2003 18:48 GMT | No matter what anyone wants to make of this, the fact is that it is considered "Assets" that can be and is being converted to "cash". The fundamental point of interest is who is doing the conversion and why.
I can perhaps see a company converting some small percentage of their assets into cash, or even throwing such non-working or outdated equipment out, but neither is the case here.
It is a rather large amount of items in comparison to any external verified source of the actual size of Amiga Inc. Employee base.
And in any event it shows disregards for taking care of ones business. So what if it was an agreed upon exchange for back rent due?
Amiga decides they don't need the stuff and figure they will just let the landlord have it as payment for what can only be back rent, as Amiga is no longer there.
Then as a matter of Public interest then how about a verified statement from teh landlord to such an effect.
Maybe I'm being stupid here.... or maybe I'm just trying to find the most logical validateable excuse for this event.
Amiga decides to cut their losses in teh office space. They move in to MS property and proceed to work on MS products.... while being supported by MS....
Come on Ray AKey....... explain this in terms that are reasonable to suspend disbelief.......
I have no doubt that the manificent creativity of the all that Amiga is can fabricate an acceptable excuse.... true or false.... |
