In his latest Amiga World Q&A, Fleecy Moss of Amiga Inc. confirms that Amiga Inc. office auction was initiated (apparently via court process) and is run by their old landlord: "We have been trying to resolve it but the landlord, within his rights under the lease agreement has opted for this course of action." Only furniture and some hardware is sold, not personal items or IP.

"There are no financial problems at Amiga Inc whatsoever, there is no proof of anything, all this is only lies and FUD from BBRV, Mr Peck is only grumpy because he got sacked, the phones lines was hacked, Garry Hares CEO business card is fake, all the court documents are fake, everything is on schedule and rockin'".

Yeah, right ...

Doesn't matter, it's not news or true until it comes from the only reliable source for info on anything Amiga-related: amiga.com. Please moderate this to Forum or Rant. ;)

What I don't get is why Fleecy invents new rumours and blame some sort of conspiracy. For example he says that, contrary to "the rumours being spread", no valuable IP or data is being auctioned off. Personally, I was not aware of any such rumours until I read Fleecy's Answer just now.

I agree, and I really mean that. Fleecy's answers have always been "Fleecy's answers", not OFFICIAL AMIGA INC STATEMENTS. They should be elevated above the status they deserve. (Fleecy is not alone in doing this. Other Amiga Inc employees have also been giving the world the benefit of their unofficial and unquotable wisdom elsewhere.)

That's because there were no such rumours, although some people naively asked the question. I'm not an expert on US law, but I would have thought it was obvious that only physical property belonging to the company could be seized and resold in this manner, and that no confidential information, intellectual property or private property belonging to the company employees would be included. It stands to reason.

So, was Fleecy actually being truthful this time? My guess is yes, if only because it was inevitable that the truth would be discovered. Shame on the Amiga Inc employee who was insistent that it was THEM who were selling off some of their unused equipment. (You know who you are)

> Don´t you ever get tired of this?

Since last summer or so, these issues has been debated. Proof of various weight has been put forward, especially during the last few weeks/months, but during the whole time every single sign of AInc having financial problems has been rejected as FUD (often accompanied with grave insults). *That* has been tireing.

But now, when the truth finally comes into light, you ask *me* "if I ever get tired of this", as if this AIncs situation would be my fault in any way! I ask you this: Were were you during the last months, why didn't you ask this question to all the people that simply ignored the proof and blatantly insulted those who tried to get the truth about Amiga Inc into the light long time ago?

(BTW, it's interesting to see how the same people today rejects all thoughts about the Articia chipset having problems, despite the proof, and they are using the same arguments; "lies, FUD, the symptoms *simply must* have other explanations, this is just BBRV and the evil MOS followers with their evil agenda, etc".)

That's the nature of the beast. If this wasn't an Amiga(I use the term loosely) dedicated forum there might be 1 of 2 situations due to the lack of events:

1) We'd be discussing football, lunix, [insert your preferred passtime]

2) There would be no one here.

The fact that there are people still here discussing something/anything could be seen as a good thing in a way.

One step at a time, Sherlock. One thing does not "automagicly" proove another. The only thing this has confirmed is that they have problems with their former landlord, nothing else. This was nothing new, most of us have seen the court documents. However, neither you or I know what their problems is actually *about* (the money issue could just as well be a side effect of something entirely different) and therefore you should restrain yourself from jumping into conclusions. For example, this does NOT proove that the Articia is malfunctioning the way BBRV claims.

No, that is NOT defending anyone, that is perfectly objective reasoning. I am NOT trying to convince you of yet another assumption but asking you to please stop the entire assuming process to begin with. I'm repeating myself; that is NOT defending anything or anyone.

(Why do I keep thinking that some moroon will despite all this call me an Amiga Inc. defender anyway? Is there really that ignorant people in the Amiga community?)

Interesting point from the interview:

Quoting Fleecy:
---------------
This amounts to some three year old wall dividers,
desks, chairs, lamps, one or two old printers, some filing cabinets etc.
People who think there will be reams of records, prototypes,
CDs full of source code and other such goodies will be sorely disappointed.
There is still some personal and private stuff in there
as well and that has to be returned to the owners;
for example I have a car full worth of CDs, clothes and kids toys.
----------------
End Quoting

Did you see the point?

Re-quoting:
-----------
I have a car full worth of CDs, clothes and kids toys.
-----------
End Re-quoting

THAT'S IT... A CAR FULL OF CLOTHES...

THERE ARE THE SO LONG AWAITED AMIGA T-SHIRTS

;-)))))))))))))))))))))))

And the landlord couldn't auction them because he believed that there are ***ALL T-SHIRTS*** private property of Fleecy...

Who will now affirm seriously that everything's fine at Amiga Inc., that they're perfectly healthy financially speaking and that the future of the company isn't in jeopardy when their landlord must do such an auction to get his money back ?

What cult is that btw? Oh, the Cult of Truth Even If It Hurts To State It? Damn it! That was suppost to be a secret!

Completely false, as usual. I've gave thumbs up to Amiga Inc when they license portions of AOS for Berniethlon. That was the absolutely correct thing to do and I whole hearted agreed with them. Then when they wimped out and let Bernie sink in a pit of Franks doodoo, is when I said Amiga Inc were the typical group of losers.

> Eyetech and Hyperion.

No, I've consistantly said that the community needs to have straight A1 vs Peg1 and OS4 vs MOS testing and let the best OS and hardware win. Is that bashing Eyetech or Hyperion? Where have I said OS4 is a pile of doodoo? I have my opinions on MAI chipsets but that can not be validated until Downix gets Cerberus binaries to two A1 users for comparison testing of two different platforms. Yes, I've said Ben is a FUDster (which he is), no I do not automatically believe anything, anymore, coming from Eyetech until I see hard proof. The crap about no bugs in MAI chipset and then having to admit there was is clear proof that what they say can not be taken for absolute truth.

You evidently confuse me with someone who gives a rat's ass about you or how you spend your money. I am sick and tired of the cheerleaders (Hi Samface!) stating everything is fine with AI/Hyperion/Eyetech when it's clearly isn't. I am sick and tired of people blowing sunshine up my ass about their vapor products and "two more weeks and you'll see" crap after waiting for what, three years now?

Where and how you spend your money is of no concern to me. I simply don't give a rat's ass. Listening to Samface trying to scrape up an ounce of respect after spending it defending his beloved heros, is quiet another thing entirely.

I think Paul would struggle to list any of the things Amiga Inc have done, good or bad. In fact, I think *anyone* would stuggle to make a list of the things Amiga Inc have done, besides trying to take credit for work done by others.

What exactly have Amiga Inc _done_ in the last three years, Ray? Please give us a list, as I really haven't seen any evidence of any productivity at all. Talk? Bluster? Certainly. Product? Sweet F.A.!

Amiga Inc. had more than 3 years to do something. Today there's nothing they've done concretely for the Amiga followers.

Only a few companies such as Genesi, Hyperion, bPlan, Eyetech etc... did something. Without these companies, the Amiga would be dead by now. Without Amiga Inc. this wouldn't have changed anything, would it ?

One thing is _asking_, another thing is spreading rumor. A rumor would have been "hey, I heard that they're auctioning HDDs with secret stuff on them". Instead, "Are HDDs with secret stuff on them being auctioned?" is a question, not a rumor.

I have the SDK 1.1 right here beside me. Besides a nice repackaging and some minor bug fixing, _that_ version of the SDK is the plain Intent. I know that people who signed an NDA have had access to some more stuff, some new APIs, but I also know that's been more than one year that nothing has been done on that front.

Still, nothing beside the SDK 1.1 has been made publicly available.

Is that _publicly_ available? Where "publicly" obviously means "to people who _haven't_ signed an NDA".

In any case, I'm afraid that Ami2D alone doesn't make AmigaDE and the "Amiverse".

In my own humble opinion, AmigaDE is the biggest flop in the IT world since years.

Reading my comment again, I understand that you might have referred to my statement "that's been more than one year that nothing has been done on that front.". I must admit that I didn't know about the January's release of Ami2D, however when I made my statement I didn't even have Ami2D in mind, I was thinking about the "important" stuff, things related to the "Amiverse".

Ok I replied to this part of your message:

"I know that people who signed an NDA have had access to some more stuff, some new APIs, but I also know that's been more than one year that nothing has been done on that front."

Now unless you are on a realy weird calender you are still in 2003 and as I said that on January 26, 2003 we released the 6th update to Ami2d(version 1.2) that makes the above statment quoted from you false.

"In any case, I'm afraid that Ami2D alone doesn't make AmigaDE and the "Amiverse"."

Who said Ami2d is the only API being developed by Amiga Inc. in fact how could you come to that conclusion if you dont know what has been developed "for more than a year". Secondly as you havent seen Ami2d(or any associated API developed by Amiga Inc.) how do you know what it is or isnt, for all you know it could be the cure for cancer :)

"In my own humble opinion, AmigaDE is the biggest flop in the IT world since years."

In reply to Comment 48 (Fabio Alemagna):
"Reading my comment again, I understand that you might have referred to my statement "that's been more than one year that nothing has been done on that front.". I must admit that I didn't know about the January's release of Ami2D, however when I made my statement I didn't even have Ami2D in mind, I was thinking about the "important" stuff, things related to the "Amiverse"."

Yepp that was the part I was refering to :)

What is the "inportant" stuff you are refering to that havent been developed for "more than one year" then?

Also as Ami2D(and associated API´s) is used quite extensivly by most games on the Microsoft GamePak #1 and #2(and .......) I would think that would be a quite inportant part of "Amiverse".
