It's on amiga.com now.. And HMetal (Ray Akey) gave the link on IRC... so it sounds pretty official to me.

Btw if it is real, I'd say its good, as I recall an ann.lu post which sounded rather genuine, talking about amiga investors bringing in Garry Harre, saying he generated dozens of potential money making leads.


-EDIT- Found it!!

Anyone notice this bit in the announcement..

About Amiga:
Amiga, Inc. established itself in 1985 as the premier provider of multimedia technologies to the world

They may well have done, but not this Amiga Inc !
Looks like they`re trying to hype themselves up, making out they`ve been around for ages and done a lot.

Shouldn`t it be more like..
Bought some rights from Gateway, announced they weren`t going to make a desktop OS, then decided to make one, had a false start,lost time, money and marketshare,told porkies,then had to sell the OS to cover it`s debts.

Well, at least OS4 is in safer hands now.. :-)

Hmmm, hmmmm, this is going to complicate things. The name Garry Hare rings a bell. Has he done anything Amiga-ish before? Wonder if this has anything to do with Ask Fleecy being removed from Amiga World? Will any of these coupons for A1 or OS 4.0 be honoured?

I'm sure everyone must be itching to ask these questions, but I'm getting there first, even if I don't expect much of a reply:

1) Is this really for real?

2) Who the hell are KMOS and where can a person find out more about them?

3) Why did't we hear about this earlier when it actually happened and not almost a year later?

3) How will this affect Genesi's threatened aquisition of OS4 as being connected to the DE?

4) Will OS4 still be allowed to be marketed with the Amiga name? If so, would Amiga Inc. still get royalties? If they do, can Genesi still claim its linked to DE?

5) Will KMOS open up the hardware market and allow OS4 to be run on a wider range of PPC boards, such as Terons, Macs, and Pegasos? Would it even be up to them what OS4 was licenced to run on?

Perhaps the company called KMOS has been formed by the investors as a mean to get the I.P. of Amiga OS from Amiga inc.. Maybe this is why no information about this artificial company has been made public yet.

Well it all looks fine... up to the point that someone tries to google search on KMOS... then things get "interesting"! I sincerely hope this isn't the case but things look reeeaallyyyy weird right now......

To ALL OF THOSE OUT THERE who have called me a liar for over a year now regarding Garry Hare, I would hope that you have the balls to offer an apology.

Garry Hare wasn't, and isn't, Amiga Inc's CEO.

No apology from me.

And probably never will be CEO of Amiga Inc.
If if what you said WAS true, why the hell should we apologize to you when it is beneath your pride to apologize to US when you are in the wrong?

;-) IIRC, The full version comes in three verses:

"May you live in interesting times,
may you come to the attention of a high official,
may all of your wishes come true."

There may be more that I haven't heard, yet.
