It appears Amiga Inc never owned some of the hardware they were possessing.
from http://www.murphyauctions.net/amiga.html
Amiga Inc is being sold by order of the property management. Some of the equipment listed has been claimed by vendors as of Wednesday, June 11, 2003. The equipment was only on the premises as a "loaner" to Amiga for development reasons. The following items have been removed from the sale:
IMAC PC
EPSON 740i printer
NOKIA MEDIA terminal
NETBOOK pda
SHARP pda
MY FRIEND pocket pc
AQUAPAD mobile internet device
VADEM CLIO pocket pc
We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Streched truth, when I hear this, I always think on AInc first.
> In post after post, you take a partial truth, bend it, twist it, and even

You said it yourself, the point is "to your knowledge".

Sounds like he must be glad he even got partially paid by you. I am sure there were enough people who would have worked for free. Just for the honour.
Gary, in case you missed it, it is quite usual in todays businessworld that employees get paid. And guess what? These employees can do whatever they like with their money. Yes! They can even buy bicycles.

The last part sounds like you are talking about Ben Hermans. Honest :)

Well, people change their opinion and companies stop paying wages. Life sucks, you know.

We all know what company AInc is. And if you don't want to discuss this here -> STFU.

How long did your hospitaltrip take?
