Amiga PCs on the way....

[mongo]

I see Commodore USA has updated their website. Too bad they still haven't figured out that you can't just take pictures from wherever you want and stick them on your site.

[mongo]

Yeah! Same here!

It will be a Commodore Amiga!

No, it will be a PC with a sticker on it.

Probably a crappy PC at that.

[mongo]

That sucks. Where does that leave Hyperion?

Same place they've always been. I can't see this having any effect on their business at all.

It looks like Barry does not own Commodore USA, LLC headquarters.

RENEE J SCHEIBER is Renee S. Altman.

Not exactly the most trustworthy person, apparently.

As far as Apple's tendency toward litigious behavior, Apple sues anyone regardless of whether their claims are valid or not. How else could you explain the lawsuits against the Beatles' record label (which existed long before Apple computers).

Uh, the lawsuits were all initiated by Apple Corps, the parent company of Apple Records, not Apple Computer.

That would be the real test.

So, instead of letting my inner retard shine, I'll relay one more comment from Mr. Altman.

Barry claimed he was going to try to have the PC64 ready for sale by Christmas. Since he was still in the process of getting the case molds made, I think he'll be hard pressed to accomplish this in such a short time.

So there's your first put up or shut up test.

Case molds? Does he even have a working prototype yet? Or is he just going to copy the C64 case exactly and hope that somehow a PC motherboard is going to fit in there? What is he planning to do for a keyboard and a keyboard controller? What is he going to do for a power supply? How is he going to get FCC approval?

"How is he going to get FCC approval?"
 
Do you really think a guy who is stealing copyrighted artwork, stealing his whole website from apple, stealing his product manuals word for word from cybernet, a guy who is slapping commodore stickers on existing pc products, do you really think a guy like that will actually get
fcc approval? Your kidding right?

Barry wouldn't do any thing illegal, would he?

Actually, if you look at the Cybernet ZPC9100, I mean Commodore Phoenix manual, it is a FCC Class A device, meaning Barry can't legally sell it for home use.
