Hyperion OWN OS4
there is simply no possible way a contract, not matter how badly mangled, with Amiga Inc can possibly give Genesi OS4.
At best all it means is the DE player they have licensed must be upgraded to the same level as that in OS4.2.
Just because it is integrated does not in any way mean that the two products are the same, in fact in the same page it is clearly stated OS4 and Amiga DE are two seperate products!
Which is all besides the point.
What is written on that page is not a contract, at best it is a guidline of the plan Amiga Inc had for the future at that time, and it is certainly NOT in any contract Amiga Inc has with Genesi.
Which is all premature. As yet I have seen or heard of absolutely no ruling in the initial case.Just because the deadline has passed means nothing, the judge still has to make and apply its final ruling into exactly how anything gained is to be awarded, and to who.Just because Genesi is listed on the deposition as a plaintiff does not garuntee that that particular company will gain anything of value, the contract in question was not with them it was with Thedic-germany, a completely different business entity.
Finally, even if Genesi do manage to void the contract in question, no longer will either eyetech or Hyperion be required to pay any license fee at all, so why the hell would they pay Genesi?They would also be under no obligation to include Amiga DE in the upgrade path of OS4....the contract is voided remember.
Once again this is nothing but FUD. Unless of course Gary Hary did some fast dealing during his stint as CEO of AMiga Inc. ROFL.
It is plainly obvious to me that Bill Buck has a personal vendetta against Bill McEwen, and possibley Ben Hermans, and is using his position to achieve completion of this vendetta. A gross misuse of power and the responsibility that has been provided to him in my opinion.
