That's really funny, Tension. How come just about any time you post something, it's nasty? I had never directed any of my posts towards you before, yet you have attacked me in the past, and now you attack me again? By the way, what's so "pfffffffft" about a new audio recording application for Aros? Care to explain why the Natami team may think I'm mental, and why that's grounds enough to kick me out of a team I was invited to?

Okay, dish.  What the heck went down?

Her name is not "dish", and she should not have to put up with such immature, sexist references on this forum or anywhere else.

I suspect that she might have been kicked off the team for just some stupid sexist reason(s), just because she is an attractive woman, instead of a pimply faced geek.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

In certain circles, simply referring to someone as an "attractive woman" could be taken as sexist.

Me thinks "dish" was used as a verb, not a noun. As in "details please".

"okay, GIVE UP DETAILS, what went down".  That's what "dish" meant in that context.

In other news, frak you.

This thread is funny!! :)

I also can't help but think this thread is biased. The first few posts look like they were written my natami employees advertising their products.

Is cammy really a girl? This is the last place i would expect to find a girl :)
Even my cat doesn\'t like me.

All I know is I did the logo for them and every time a see it it's got more stuff added to it.
Upper case A, not so upper non matching upper case A... Strange box thingy on the left... Amiga Trademark boing ball dotting the I..

Feature creep was expected on the hardware to a degree... not the logo!

I wish them the best though... We do al realize this is a bunch of guys with day jobs and Natami is probably just a side thing at best?

Also has anyone reading this tried to release product self funded? Ever debugged a motherboard, designed an IC chip?

Think of the Natami as more of an Amiga hobbyist think tank. Not a fully commercial project with a set deadline.

Dish as a term referring to females went out with the dodo's ( i actually understood what he meant). :D
Now the real reason for this post i know quite a few of you have strong feelings on Natami some say its not going to appear and some say it is (i am on the side that HOPES it arrears, anything is possible) only one person really know who that is going and that Thomas but since it is a hobby you can forgive him for taking his time. since there only a few other projects around (which i will buy if when they come out) i can wait.

Buy it or not if it get released is up to you (and quite frankly if they make a limited amount you are in competition with me in buying one... :D), so tired of the same people giving the same response all the time (the same tired rhetoric each and every time) i can name names but i wont we all know who they are.
Would like to know what happened to Cammy but i wont pry and YES CAMMY is a real girl....

Lets call in Doomy to run the project... then of course we'd have to call it a STINK TANK...

All kidding aside NATAMI folks, good luck and I'll be waiting when these hit the online shops.

That's no excuse to treat people like dirt.

so why all the sudden piru takes sides with cammy? if they really treat the people like dirt that doesnt say anything about the quality of their wannabe product actually , if it ever emerges.. cammy, care to elaborate what happened? i actually have some trust in thomas, even though this doesnt necessarily exceeds to the reast of the co called team. nevertheless it is the most exciting amiga related project nowadays.

edit: i actually believe they have an 68k compatible fpga core in the works, which interests me most. beg forgiveness.

What is the current state of the NatAmi project? Looking at their website, I saw no mention of a MX board.
Has there been any news since May? Do they display at any shows?

Why shouldn't I? What's so sudden about it? Please enlighten me.

No, but it does say much about the project management, and that'll ultimately affect the product quality as well.
