Hope you're right. I took it the other way, that Bill's just trying to court a new supplier of paychecks for doing nuthin.
That would require a prior agreement. If Amiga Inc.actually has more than one owner, competitive bidding for the property would make it difficult for Bill to require his employment as a condition of the sale.
Edit - The latest statement I've seen on this situation states that Amiga Inc. is seeking "venture capital".
This may not indicated a sale of any IP or trademark. Rather, Mr. Bill may be trolling for someone else to finance his endevors
