wierd....the words like "We did not get rid of Bill McEwen; the Amiga Inc. shareholders did." from Buck is getting funnier and funnier...

This entire thing is not even funny anymore....

Regarding the "This is business guys" quote from Mr. Buck. Don't know if it's taken totally out of context but he is 100% right about that.

This is business and thats the reason why he shouldn't behave like he was in kindergarten.

There was a (short) period where Genesi (BBRV) just talked about their own products and plans. I kinda liked those plans and the new style but now I feel nothing has changed in regards to their way to communicate.
I think Genesi will loose a lot of potential customors if they continue in this way, but then again maybe they want nothing more from the Amiga community (got some key developers and will try to expand to other areas with Peg2)?

Anyway Mr. Buck knows how I feel about his ways of communicating, but I'm not sure he's aware I'm not the only one who feels this way?

Why is it so hard to concentrate about your own company and answer emails/comments in a polite way or stop answering them at all(I am not talking about any of those you sent me but other persons I know)?

Just a small rant here as I am sick and tired of all this rumour mongering in the community.
Honestly, what if Amiga got a new CEO, why would that matter to Genesi?

Best regards
Troels

If I understood bbrv correctly then they have spoken with Garry Hare about the
law suit and did even think about being an investor in the future of a new
Amiga Inc. So it does matter for them who's CEO.

Looks like this Garry Hare will have a big problem because of handing out wrong
business cards to other companies or investors of Amiga Inc.

'fraid so.

It basically says that _as far as Bill McEwen is concerned_ he is CEO now and expects to be CEO/President in three months time. Pretty much what Fleecy said then.

What it doesn't do is address what certainly _seems_ to be a genuine business card handed out by someone who has been acknowledged as being associated with Amiga Inc through its investors. It also does not preclude the scenario that Bill might be replaced before AmiWest.

I wouldn't *blame* Ray for this announcement. He surely would not have put it up without approval from the management.

I don't think it's that important whether BBRV told the exact truth any more. It's far more important to find out if any management changes are about to happen, and in that case what changes would take place to both personnel and strategy. This ought to be of interest to anyone who is planning to or has already invested in the Amiga Inc "vision" for the future.

@Bill Hoggett

I agreed with your stance before the posting of this on AInc:s site. But from
now on the burden of explanation is not on AmigaInc concerning that business
card. They have clearly stated that Bill McEwen is still the CEO. No room for
misinterpretations there. There may be future changes perhaps, but until AInc
choose to announce those changes themselves (as any company would), we cannot
rightly demand any more clarification from them than they have already given in
this matter. The burden of explanation for the circumstances around that
business card (which is very interesting by its very existance) lies now firmly
at the guy handing it out and/or Bill Buck (if he should choose to pursue this
further).

Oh, that's easy. IMHO he did it to cause trouble for Amiga Inc. The timing is probably significant too. (He denies this and professes to being surprised at the furore, but I wasn't born yesterday and neither was he)

> everyone is off on their own little witch hunts now anyway.

If the search for the truth is a witch hunt, so be it. I think the answers to the questions asked are far more significant than the debate on how or why the questions were raised in the first place. It seems considerable effort is being made to reassure the faithful without touching on the detail of the questions asked.

When you realise that what you're watching is just shadow boxing, you want to know why. At least I do.

Further disappointed that he would try to veil it under the guise of 'business'. For shame and tsk tsk.

Precisely.

So, according to your interpretation, Amiga Inc have categorically denied the possibility that the card is genuine, and it is their position that they have no knowledge about it, yes? Just so there's no confusion, you see.

(Because according to someone who has had a chance to compare that card to those of Bill and Fleecy, and whose word I have no reason to doubt, there is little doubt that the card is genuine.)

Since Amiga Inc have to my awareness not even acknowledged the existence of this card, I don't see how that can be taken as denial of its validity. Only if Amiga Inc categorically state that they know nothing of such a card does the burden pass on to Msrs Hare or Buck to explain its existence.

(That's why my earlier summary of the possible scenarios and damage control options all included Amiga Inc acknowledging there is an issue surrounding the card which they need to address. They have not done this and posted an announcement where they expect the reader to deduce possible implications themselves. That's just not good enough.)

Sorry, you misunderstand me. If you are planning or considering purchasing one of Mr Buck's products, then it is _very_ significant whether he told the exact truth or not. However, if you are planning to invest in the Amiga Inc. "vision" (AmigaOne/AmigaOS/AmigaDE) I submit that it is *nore* important to you to know if there are any major changes in management and/or strategy at Amiga Inc., than it is to determine the exactness of whatever Mr. Buck might be claiming.

I do agree with KenH on this. ANYONE attempting to deceive the public does not deserve their custom.

So what if there was a card?? So, what if Amiga Inc asked Garry to think about being the next CEO?? Does that mean he was the new CEO, no. Heck, Amiga Inc maybe talking to others right now about being the next CEO, does that make Bill McEwen not the CEO? I think someone had some information and used it for his own reasons, those reason may never be know, but only unto him.

Oh, come on. That's stretching the imagination a bit, don't you think? If you haven't got past the "suggestion" stage, you do not produce cards that state something which hasn't happened yet, and you most certainly don't authorise their use in any circumstances. Doing so would be fraudulent as it would be imparting false information about the company's management.

That why it *is* important that this mystery is solved beyond suspicion. If the card is false, Amiga Inc should say so. If it's not, it most certainly demands an explanation.

I don't care about the business card.

Fact is, someone told us Amiga Inc had a new CEO, said he knew,
and if Bill McEwen shows up at amiWest, that doesn't appear to be a true
statement.

oh well, I've had a lot of fun making fun of Amiga, Inc...heck they deserved it.
But I'm tired of it, Genesi isn't an alternative.

And don't anyone send me an e-mail, please. I don't need a pep talk,
they aren't an alternative.

I'm not upset....not going off....not leaving...I will even consider them again if they become an alternative....but this isn't a cause worth putting effort into at this point.

Its a misstep, like never releasing MorphOS to the public for Cyberstorm...I think they are waiting for OS 4 to beat them to it??? Maybe, maybe not, but they are getting close to being beaten to the punch....for letting Peg sales stop while they work on Peg 2....to being closed source and failing to take the upper ground on that point.

To constantly trying to break apple's eula on Mac OS...

heck some of these things Amiga does too, but it just doesn't float my boat.

OK, so, what if Amiga Inc answered directly to Bill Buck's allegations? Next time, some other nobody claims something about Amiga Inc and they have to sink to their level and answer or comment on that?

Judging by the amount of lies, rumours, bended truths out there, they wouldn't have time to do anything else than commenting on rumours/allegations etc, and that would piss me off since I wouldn't get the developer support I get and wouldn't be able to be part of the fast-paced development of their new products.

He also stated that Fleecy was on the way out. None of this explains the business card, but it seems that Bill Buck meet Gary and then let his imagination take the best of him. Maybe, because he wasn't taken to task for his claim about the AOne G4, he feel that he can state rumors as facts and not pay any repercussions.

For all intents and purposes, yes. But there's no talking to others. Hare is in. McEwen is out (as CEO). Period.

Also, note that AInc has NEVER EVER been this quick in public communications before about ANYTHING (when/if they've bothered to communicate). But today is the last day of April. Tomorrow, McEwen may no longer be employed as CEO (i.e. not even only on paper like he is today), and Hare would from now (tomorrow) on fill that position alone, instead of as hitherto in parallel with McEwen.

Hare could be great news (I have a hard time seeing hos the situation could possibly deteriorate any further), so I don't get why the Trademark Fanatics shout "FUD". FUD is supposed to be *bad* news, and AInc has handled the task to spread Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt about both themselves and others just fine without any help from competitors.

What "allegations"? Stooping to "their" level? Fleecy has in his usual roundabout and intentionally unclear way confirmed that Hare is, if not *currently* employed as acting CEO, affiliated with AInc. It's AInc's collaborator/employee/CEO/whatever Hare that has presented himself as "CEO/Chairman, Amiga Inc." Shooting the messenger again, are we?

Your argument is anorexic. You know, most of 'public opinion' comes from the same types time and time again. Sad and self serving though it may seem. Where are the rest of you? (please spare us that and the Alkis anger management diatribe and the smoothy wranglings of Greenboy)

I feel that the if any of the Amiga related companies goes down, it will be a sad event. Yet it seems to me that is just what some people would like to see. That there is this small battle going on between two camps. Well, in my thougth, Amgia Inc, just may go down. I hope not, but in the real world, companies need to make money. It is not rocket science, to know that Amiga Inc has not been making money. No money no Amiga Inc. If that does happen, the battle may be won, but I feel the war will be lost. How sad, to think that this is just what some people are wishing for, that Amiga Inc will go down. Well, be careful for what you wish for, you just may get it. That would leave Genesi, hummm what are the chances of them picking up the pieces and lasting? About the same as Amiga Inc. In the big boys market, even Linux struggles, let's face it the Amiga market is so small, that fighting over just does not make any cents. Who will really win from this? You and me, I do not think so. I think it is a lose lose deal. Everybody wants to control Amiga, yet no one will. Just my rambblings.

>Amiga Inc. So it does matter for them who's CEO.

I agree with you that it does matter form them who is CEO. However debating
that on public forms and coming with allegations of removal of certain
persons is NOT the way to do it. Not now, not tomorrow. Never. BB's acting
simply stinks!

Ahhhh.....the roles are turned around now!

The past couple of days we, the Amiga supporters, have been told too wake up and smell the coffee. There was a new CEO, here is the card. We've got you.

Now a press release by Bill McEwen says it is not so, askes by many of you, and now you people don't wake up and smell the coffee.

This is stupid guys. Garry Hare did look into business plans of Amiga and might have done a *free* job at that and might have done a voluntary job as some sort of second CEO to get in touch with others.

But the fact is; Bill McEwen is CEO. WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE.

If BB would have said "Ooohh... we have card; Garry Hare; CEO; We thought it was old news but it seems not. Let's wait for confirmation"

What he did was " Blahblah major house cleaning blahblah wouldn't trust the position of Fleecy blablah new Amiga". BULLOCKS
