With products like MiniMig, FPGA Arcade, Natami, and the like generating buzz this is certainly interesting as it also seemed to be far along...
I can understand the ANGST of those involved and not wanting to continue with the project. I had no idea Anti Gravity didn't pay for those ads....
Jeez...With stories like this I start to think the Amiga really is cursed. That or some conspiracy to keep the platform dead is afoot.
Could it be the Illuminati, FreeMAsons, or Atari Falconers.. lol!
