Amiga Inc. Has Sold AmigaOS Rights : Comment 68 of 124 | ANN.lu |
Posted by gary_c on 16-Mar-2004 06:55 GMT | In reply to Comment 63 (Graham_nli): It looks like AmigaOS was ripped from them by a company set up by their investors, including Garry Hare, so that Amiga Inc. would get on and do what the investors wanted them to do - namely work on AmigaDE, not AmigaOS!
It's not like AmigaOS was getting in the way of AmigaDE development and promotion by AI anyway, as a practical matter. They already contracted it out to Hyperion so it really wasn't a distraction, apart from tangential activity like Fleecy's on-line sessions and Ray's server management. But, OK, if AI can go on now and do AmigaDE things with full focus, more power to them. But it's hard to believe this sale was lucrative enough to both pay off all the past debts and fund further AmigaDE development, and it's hard to imagine that the investors would still have confidense in AI management or AmigaDE potential at this point.
But let's hope for the best.
