The one thing that bothers me about the article, though, is the way the author talks about the Amiga like it's some ancient relic from eons ago:

Quote
one of the first comments mentioned the Amiga. I kid you not


Quote
...resulted in someone coming forward with a *working* Amiga, believe it or not...


Quote
I'll bet the lawyers on the other side never in a million years thought they'd have to deal with a working Amiga (emphasis mine)


Come on... an electronic device that still works after 25 years is not that unbelievable!
