@ T_Bone in reply to the 'Get legal or get shutdown' post:

When Amiga Inc made those remarks it was not aimed specifically at Genesi, in fact it could have refereed to H&P.

Now if Genesi felt threatened by the remarks thats different (not saying they did!)

Back to my analogy - if i had a company whose IP appeared to be threatened in some way, I would not lie back and wait for it to happen, I would take steps to sort it, find out the truth etc.!

Well Amiga Inc. Employees have named Genesi Employees as having stolen AmigaOS source code. So That might explain why Genesi were a little unhappy with the claims.

Because they bought / will buy AOS4. It was, is (earlybird offer) and will be impossible to buy an AmigaOne without AOS4.

So would I, but you're missing the point...

My point was in response to a post that claimed "Amga was minding their own business" when Genesi sued them. That's not true. Amiga ‚õtòted the legal ball rolling that brings us to where we are today.

This is not bad news. Every step towards the shutdown of AmigaInc is
good news.

AmigaInc is dead. The Amiga is not. I'd say the Amiga community is in
better shape than it has been for at least 5 years. Getting rid of
AmigaInc completely would be very good for the Amiga community.

I'm doing my Master's thesis with support from Genesi, on my Pegasos
machine. This is no secret. However I won't make any announcements
until there is anything interesting to announce (and this project is
probably not very interesting for most users anyway, even when
finished).

I certainly can't make any Master's thesis, or anything else for that
matter, on anything AInc are offering. So it's not exactly like I've
made much of a choice. Also I can't make it on OS4. I could do it on
the A1, but I'd have to use Linux.

As for AInc, their sins go much further than threatening Genesi and
AROS with legal action and befrauding employees and users. They've
also been lying, cheating and threatening both developers and
resellers. Nope, I won't provide any evidence this time, speak to some
of them yourself - I've heard sad stories from many independent
sources. AInc aren't just impotent, they are outright bad.

It is not relevant what people choose to _run_. It is not possible to buy an AmigaOne without buying AmigaOS4. It's a condition of purchase which in turn is a condition of Eyetech's license to use the trademark.

Furthermore, any changes to the terms and conditions of the offer made AFTER people purchased the coupons does not apply to those who already paid their money before the change. To do it any differently would be breaking the law.

That's Amiga's main problem, they need to learn that
"Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate"

They've been making too many enemies, people trying to do business with them and getting shunned, developers buying dev kits bla bla, handpicked cream-of-the-crop most loyal users getting burned in wild coupon schemes, etc....

Genesi, while having enemies, has been bending over backwards to focus on making friends.

Go take a look over on MooBunny, I'm taking on a PPC bigot. ;) I can't help if you don't believe me, or Greenboy. The only PPC I've touched more then once (I did try out Downix's Peg last spring at his house but that's the only time, ever) is my aunt's G4 Mac. OSX isn't all that bad, but it isn't Linux nor AROS. ;)

So what do you think the Judge is going to do now that he has allowed Amiga Inc's counsel to remove themselves as Amgia Inc's counsel?

In reply to Comment 211 (dammy):
Speaking of PPC, the following is something I didn't think much about at the time (since I am not keen on PPC for various reasons), but thought about later on and never really got clear on:

When Bill McEwen, Fleecy, et. al., got Amiga from Gateway at the end of 1999, within a month from then they had posted on their website how they already had an Amiga OS running on PPC. I don't have the press release in digital format anymore or I'd cut & paste--and I'll have to check my files for the printout for exact wording--but why would they have said they already had the OS running on PPC when the time since then has apparently been spent porting the classic to PPC or writing the new one for PPC?

Was that back when another company might have had something for them to work with? (no, not QNX or TAO or Linux... but maybe H&P or Phase V?).

I agree, that's why I didn't link it or quote it.

However, it still proves my point about Genesi being under Amiga's "Get legal or be shut down" umbrella.

Get legal or be shut down was concerning Merlancia - since H&P is out of the country amiga couldn't "shut down" H&P.

All Genesi needs to do is get some standing, then they can force Amiga into bankruptcy protection, whether they want to or not, whether they agree or not.

I think the likely scenario now is default judgements all the way.

If they have any financial backers, they better come out of the woodwork now, or forever hold their peace.

I think he has acted very childishly. The nice thing is though, that most people's responses to him have been reasoned and well put together. I only spotted one comment that was moderated. It's a shame that ANN occasionally gets people who spend an entire day working to divert the course of a thread, so that the topic can't be discussed.

Don't label me a blind Ainc follower, 'cause i'm not one of those, it's not because i choose to go the AOS4 route that i give a rats ass as to whom the parent company is. If Genesi were selling MOS as AOS4, and Hyperion AOS4 as MOS, then i'd prefered MOS, because, well, i prefer it. Do you get it now?

You've noticed that there are persons from that website who come on ANN to stir up trouble and flames and rumours and hostility, and then they go back and say "oh dear, look at all the trouble and flames and rumours and hostility on ANN, we are so much better."

I would not be surprised if some of these guys are also doing the anonymous troll posts. Maybe they think if they stir it up bad enough on ANN, more people will be turned off and tune into amigaworld.net.

"amiga.org" and "exodus" comes to mind, and a few names spring up. I wouldn't be surprised if the same was attempted with ANN's readership, as well. (And before anyone gets upset about this, no, I can't prove anything, yes, it's an unfounded gut-feeling theory, no, I'm not paranoid, and yes, I realise maybe only one or two people involved in AW.net, or posting there, might be behind any such (perceived) mayhem.

Name two victims of this that we can verify. You are just spreading FUD, Mikey C. Phase 5 went bankrupt years ago and there were some customers who were dissatisfied for one reason or another, but Genesi in fact tried to make it up to these customers by soliciting their complaints and extending them special offers. They put out the word and got I think no more than three responses.

People like you just like to use this as a tool to decry and criticize for your stupid anti-Genesi agenda. Your "Phase 5 scammed users" comment is false. You can prove me wrong: name two we can verify.

More FUD. Name some of these "many." I notice you don't say that you yourself suffer from this. So you just recycle rumour and innuendo. You're full of it.

Christophe removed your comment, and rightly so, because your language (allusion to sexual acts, etc.) does not fit on a computer news site with such a diverse number of readers who may or may not take offense at such things.

If you get your mind out of the gutter and post a well-reasoned argument, then your opinion is as welcome as any other. If you can't conform to the guidelines you're not welcome and your comments will be removed.

In case you never bothered to read that red box at the top of the "Add new comments" page:

There is one thing to blatenly defend crooks but defending crooks and insulting every single person what has proved yet again your favorite company is a sham is just very sad and not really needed.

You really need to stay on Amigaworld if you cant handle the truth.

" You've noticed that there are persons from that website who come on ANN to stir up trouble and flames and rumours and hostility, and then they go back and say "oh dear, look at all the trouble and flames and rumours and hostility on ANN, we are so much better."

MikeyC started a thread here not too long ago stirring up $#!+ saying Genesi doesn't own the "pegasos" trademark, then when he realised Amiga doesn't even own the Amiga trademark, he left here with his tail under his legs in a bout of utter embarassment, and the thread resumed on his home turf, Amigaworld.net, where the thread was locked.

I've seen it happen far too often. Amigaworld.net was supposed to be a place where a non-controversial atmosphere was desired, but his behavior has caused that mission to fail.

You know, AmigaWorld makes me think of this song by Lamb, "Cotton
Wool".
