Commodore USA was not set up as charity to support the development of AROS. It holds less than nothing of interest or importance to me, or 99.999999% of our intended market. It is a product that I or any other company could not use at all, as it has NO commercial value now, as is. So why are you all so concerned??

Our relationship with them, along with our support for the elegant, robust and lightweight AROS desktop operating system, will ensure that they and future customers will benefit from our new and exciting vision, and enable the legacy Commodore and Amiga culture to flourish.


One of these is not like the other

Both are from Barry.
The latter, from the press release, was written by Barry.
The former was after you guys brought out the pitchforks.
What a difference one week with you guys makes. :-D


so either amiga.org is totally not the target group or we dictate corporate policy ?


Somewhat tangentially, do we have any communication from any AROS developers ?

Nobody gives a crap until you have actually done something.

We'll care about CUSA when they have actually done something.
