Forget about chances of revival folks. We're talking about a platform that stopped it's existence over ten years ago. The corpse has just refused to accept it's death because of a hardcore userbase and a number of small companies involved with the platform before it died and stayed.

This is THE LAST chance of coming through! Many of you kept saying that in the beginning when AI was formed 3 years ago, but we all believed McBacons pr and thought even while it might be the last chance, this would be the one to succeed.

That hasn't happened and WILL NOT happen. Not anymore. No one in the computer industry will ever take the amiga seriously, especially after AI's involvement and the mess they left behind. The chances of amiga to wake from the dead is similar to dinosaurs suddenly waking up in museums where their remains are kept to show ppl of the ANCIENT HISTORY.

Look at the current state of computer technology and the speed that everything is moving forward. Now consider we've been left out of this progress in our technology for TEN frigging years! Little patches here and there won't change the fact that even if hyperion and genesi and everyone in amiga industry would combine their forces, we'd still be left out and terribly behind.

That's why AI concieved the plan of DE which has NOTHING to do with amiga except for the name. What kind of investor would be interested in reviving a computer platform from it's death after ten years!? It would have to be Frankenstein of the IT industry and still wouldn't have a happy end as neither did Frankenstein and his mongoloid monster.

The amiga was and is a great platform and I will always have fond memories of it. And I'll continue to keep good care of my amigas and even play around with them when feeling a bit retro. But for god's sakes... Is it a viable platform for todays standards!? c'mon...

I pleed to AI and everyone involved in the mess they created.. Just let our beloved platform die with any shreads of dignity it might still have left if any.
