Rubbish!
Show me where I ever mentioned George Lucas or anything to do with him. Where did that come from off the side lines?
Amigactive Issue 23, page 37.
No..IIRC it said "We are expecting that our systems will be highly accepted by companies like Spielberg Studios and possible Lucasfilm Ltd. Show me where I made reference to personal dealings with George Lucas, anywhere, ever.
Both companies purchase multimedia products for video editing, etc. We were also anticipating the AmigaDE and a host of promised applications to run on them at that time, none of which will probably ever come out.
In regards to OS4: I have had conversations regarding what the status was a few months ago, and that didn't impress me at all. My sources are my own, and none of your business.
i.e. you have no source
No, I have a source with a judicial gag order on him at the moment. Wait a few weeks. Hyperion might have made progress recently, but nothing is apparent on the surface.
There is no apparent progress on this product from 6 months ago, nor from one year ago or better. AmigaOne is more late than anything we have announced,
That's strange as Hyperion have only been working on it for a year, and some of the progress made has been publically shown. As for the AmigaOne, I know several people who have one in thier possesion now. How many people own dual G4 Tsunami boards?
The Tsunami uses the Pegasos board, and it always has. As soon as dual G4 boards are available, they will ship.
In the meanwhile, I bid you a temporary farewell as I go to take care of more important matters than whether or not OS 4 is in true Beta or not.
What you're finally going to pay Dave?
No, Dave will never get another thin disme from us. He's gotten plenty already, and he still retains a lot of Merlancia design work and IP that we will never see. That physical and intellectual property is worth more than the money he desires to be paid. Furthermore, he had no contracts with us. After being furnished with them he refused to sign them, so he has no legal leg to stand on.
He and his little dog Skal were the reasons we lost $100k to Amiga Inc last January. We have no intentions to give him any more money. He made tens of thousands off of us between May 2002 and December 2002, and never provied us with anything tangeable, not even the paperwork that he supposedly had signed for us with IBM. Nothing what-so-ever except air.
After his little stunt with RWW; and don't think for a second that I'm so stupid that I can't see Count Daveula orchestrating all this through his little RWW Renfield; he'll never see a cent from us again.
Currently he has in his posession prototypes that we purchased, a logic board design that we own, and paperwork that we should have. He was told last year that if he wanted to be paid, that he would have to turn this in as a condition. He refused to do so, and therefore any further communication from him was ignored.
This is the same man that one year ago thought we should dump the Amiga market alltogether to focus on Linux. He's a friend to none of you..this is all a personal vwngence cruisade against us, just like he made on Met@Box and CBM. Maybe you should seek the other side of the story from other employeers that he has had. Apparently everybody is out to get Dave. Ever stop to think that he isn't much of a Saint himself?
I don't know why this has become a topic here. If he had a legal case against us, it would have been filed long ago. He doesn't. Period. I'm sorry we ever hired him.
