We havent boycotted Amiga INC. at all. Nothing. We  sent out a letter to them, wich explained that we care about the Amiga community and so on. Nothing more, ..

url at the moment:
http://home.powertech.no/micbergs , but that will change.

And Amitopia is a 22 pages thick Amiga magazine, and we write about AmigaDE, Amiga Anywhere and such. We dont boycot, we just wanted Amiga INC. to not go into many deals with Microsoft.
Just look at all the MAC people, wich got drowned, when Microsoft bought 40% into Apple. We dont want that to happend with Amiga too.

If Amiga is going to hold the partnership where it is now, and later backstab Microsoft and overtake the Commercial OS market! Then I would like the partnership :o)

No, I got your intention with the "boycut" ;o) I also hate when "Microsucks" get its fingers in good companies! So let us hope that they woun't get their "fingers" in Amiga!
Best regards,

>>Yup. The Microsoft announcement was the final straw.
>>We will now only support ELBOX, HYPERION & bPlan from now on.
>>We will write about Amiga INC's plans, but thats all.
>>We will send a letter wich will inform Amiga INC. why we boycot them.
>>If you are against the partnership with Microsoft, please send a mail to: amitopia@amiga.ca today!
>>Your comment will be put onto the letter!

>>Boycot against Amiga INC. partnership with Microsoft

I say that sounds like a boycott to me.....

I absolutely agree.

To quote an Eels song: "Change what you're saying, don't change what you've said". Pretending you didn't say something when you quite cleary and obviously did, is not a way to improve your credibility.

To clear something here! Yes, we support Elbox
and what they do. They are a trusty Amiga company,
wich delivers products. Hyperion is the makers
of AmigaOS4 and bPlan is comming with their
Amiga clone.

We will write about AmigaDE and AmigaAnywhere too
offcourse, but the letter was ittended like a
warning for Amiga INC. to NOT get into tight
partnership with Microsoft!

The post was in the more aggressive mode, since
I dont want Amiga INC. to be half bought by
Microsoft or totally. Because AmigaDE is a good
product.
