Amiga.org looking for historical postings and announcements

[cecilia]

Lets face it, we've all been swimming around in darkness for the past 10 years. Do we really need reminding of these times (yet)?

because maybe people will realize that we can't depend on a company...we have to depend on each other.
If you look at the history of Amiga one thing comes back again and again: everything we have is because someone took the trouble to make a piece of software or a clever piece of hardware and it worked [color=FF0000]dispite[/color] all the idiots who had "control" over the various companys that have come and gone.

     The 28th April saw the end of one of major computer manufacturers of the 1980's. Commodore Business Machines International has formally gone into liquidation, signaling the end of the      multi-million dollar company. The liquidation reaches further than just the closure of the company, and will have far reaching effects . . .

Dave Haynie (PIOS Computer) jokes that Steve Jobs was responsable for the death of Commodore due to their lead in headphone jacks in computers.-

Amiga Update should have a few things.

I thought Jim Collas also got booted due to some hanky-panky 'in the server room' - if you get my meaning. - I have tons of Amazing Amiga mags around that I have been slowly scanning the TOC's for getting that online - not doing the actual articles, that's copyright violation - But if Amiga.org wants some of these mags when I'm done, happy to mail them to you - I have a ton of UK Amiga mags for that matter too.....

shoot me a mail, happy to discuss - or if other 'amiga historians' are interested in same....
