I agree with Tigger.  What's more, I think you should take that dollar and donate it to the AmiZilla project if you have to give it away.  Naturally, I think the whole community would be served if anyone could actually purchase a product.

There are a few active developers left.  Think about ImageFX, FxPaint, FroggerNG, a new e.p.i.c. game, Vapor, Ibrowse, Amiga.org stuff, and many others.  Consider hanging on to that cash for a Pegasos.  

As generic as it may sound, even donating some cash to www.mame.dk is benefitial to all.  Finally, I must plug Amiga.org itself, Amiga.org does take donations.

Whatever is going to happen to Amiga Inc is going to happen.  It's effectively too late for donations.  It was really too late when they took the $50; otherwise, there would be about 1300 happy T-Shirt wearers now.

@SilvrDrgn

I feel your pain.  They have $50 of mine too, with nothing to show for it.

@mepmepmep
When I get a t-shirt and a coupon, or my money back, then I *may* cut them some slack.  Even then, it's a "maybe" because they have had my $50 for a year now....  And, yes, you are wrong here. They are perfectly open to community judgement, Amiga Inc took people's money in a very "fly by night scam" way.  It is not unfair to be judgemental when you have been obviously wronged.

Well, I am being serious.  Sending any amount of money to Amiga Inc is a waste of money, time, and heartache.  In the southland, we have a name for this sort of company, "Fly By Nights."  Leave 'em alone, and forget about Amino Inc.

You know, I think Downix sugar coated things a little bit.  Some old AOS headaches are gone, yes.  All of them? No.  The headaches that are there are being worked on.  The version bump from 1.3 to 1.4 was nothing short of amazing. (I think I said the same thing on MorphZone a while back)

Anyway, sometimes, a screenshot is worth more than a thousand words.  I will upload to Amiga.org a screengrab of my own personal Ambient (think Workbench) grab.  Just give me a few minutes, a really great show is on the T.V. about ancient Alexandria.... :-)
