This could fail too. Most new business' fail. It doesn't mean he hasn't got the right to try. Especially if he's negotiated the rights to use the trademarks and the only funds hes risking are his own.
The last attempt to resurrect Indian Motorcycles in the US failed. Someone else will probably try it again in the future. These things happen.
What if he succeeds?
Iggy, did you ask him anything about:
1) How many employees C= USA has?
2) Does he plan to do any SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT for AROS? Or in any other way to support and promote it?
He's bought the C= name, the Amiga name rights, and plans to sell x86 boxes in old C= style cases and throw on bundled OS's. Not very exciting and not interesting if he doesn't plan to support and augment AROS development.
