I am currently being threatened by my former employer (they are "compelled [to] take action against [me]") for the way I am running ANN, and how this allegedly violates my employment contract with them ("interfere _in any manner_ with any business relationship between the Company and any of its customers or business partners"). This might entail drastic changes to the relative freedom of speech ANN has always allowed its visitors, or ANN might close down altogether. Updated 10:00 CET.

Legal threats? : Comment 749 of 1057 | ANN.lu |
Posted by T_Bone on 08-Apr-2004 14:25 GMT | In reply to Comment 746 (Sammy Nordström): > "from Mai Logic's strategic partners"
> That's not from MAI, now is it?
Yes, it is. You can buy them directly from Mai. Of course Mai don't make them themselves, they have the same people make the Terons that Eyetech does, in fact, Mai recommended the manufacturer to Eyetech, saying "This is where we make ours."

No, I said they were selling the Terons without the dev tools for $500.

Because the retail customers (The ones who just want the boards) don't buy developer boards, they buy the $500 boards without the dev tools.
Besides, the amount of $500 was mentioned as a targetted price range, where did you get that specific amount of $499 from? |
