Curious about selling this one folks.
« on: April 20, 2006, 02:53:40 AM »
Hey Yo!  (just kidding)

Ok, so I was going through the garage tonight, trying to wade through the 4 foot high stacks of crap that has ended up out there to see what goes on e-bay and what gets trashed.  Interestingly, I didn't find everything I thought I would, but I did, in fact find one little thing I think someone out there might be interested in.

In particular, it's an Amiga Press Information Packet from 2/2/99, in color, presented to us at -- I believe -- one of the last if not THE last Saint Louis show by Gateway Amiga.

Marked as "Amiga Inc Confidential", it's a color printed, well-bound, approximately 20-page document outlining everything in their plans from OS 4.0 (4th Quarter 1999) to OS 5.0 beta (Q1/2000), to OS 5.0 release in 2Q/2000.

Amazing read for those of us who lived it.  Very interesting trinket for those of you who want to remember.

That being said, any interest?  

Wayne

(PS. I also found my original proposal for the UGN and the Amiga Developer Network -- which was stolen by Fleecy -- my job offer letter from Amiga Inc, and a few other things which definitely bring back memories.  I'll probably keep those, but hey, it was fun finding them again.)

How about you scan it into a nice PDF format? :)  It'd be an interesting read!

Very interesting indeed!  

I still have my Commodore developers application package postmarked the last week of April 1994. It must have been one of the last documents to be mailed out before they turned off the lights.

Needless to say it's still blank. I never bothered to fill it out and send it back:-D

Nah, got the point, but I figured it was worth a shot, eh? :)

I'm thinking that would be a fairly interesting read. What ifs always get my curiosity.
