Motion for Summary Judgement Against Amiga to be Heard on Nov 21, 2003 in Washington Federal District Court.
Motion for Summary Judgement Against Amiga to be Heard on Nov 21, 2003 in Washington Federal District Court.
It also looks like Amiga is again without counsel.
"This matter comes before the Court on "Plantiffs' Motion for Judgement and dismissal of Counter Claims for Lack of Representation." Although corporations must be represented by counsel, defendant's failure to retain new counsel has not yet been given rise to a sanctionable failure to prosecute. Plantiff's motion for judgement and dismissal of the counterclaims is DENIED. Defendant must, however, obtain counsel to defend this litigation if it hopes to avoid an adverse ruling on plaantiff's pending motion for summary judgement.
DATED this 7th day of November,2003.

BTW, I'd just like to add:

>sleeker elsewhere you know what, they buy it elsewhere.
Which is the main reason for why the common person owns a PC with Windows rather than an Amiga. I, on the other hand, am an Amiga user rather than a common PC owner and choose what products to buy and companies to trust with completely different criterions. I'm NOT the kind of person you convince by using anti-competitive business methods and I do NOT believe such business methods are favourable to me as a customer, especially not in the long run.
Microsoft's monopoly is a perfect example of what happens when people's short-term need is more important than the future and I find it rather alarming that a company is allowed to operate with such business methods in the Amiga market. Maybe all these long years of adversity in the Amiga market has caused some Amiga users to forget what caused the adversities to begin with, or maybe their short-term need for new products has simply grown too strong for their objectivity, I don't know. What I do know is that when we loose our sense of business moral and let our short-term need for new products take over, we become just like any other PC owner out there no matter how much we try to hide behind our proud history as Amiga users.
So please, don't come here and preach to me about how the "real" business market works. You see, it's because I do know how it works that I don't want to be a part of it. |
