Some of the ownership history wasn't entirely accurate, but it was a good article all the same. Well balanced, and quite comprehensive.

This is good publicity :-)

Ha ha, you GOT to read some of the replys to this article:

http://osnews.com/comment.php?news_id=9439

People are ripping on the cost of the micro Amiga. :)

Ya, I wonder sometimes if the guys who think selling out dated PPC hardware for triple the cost of an "at least" more up to date Mac Mini, is logical...

...are infact the kind of people who think Bush and his administration are sane...

...or Kerry or any X prez is sane for that matter. :)

OMG, too funny, AMiga is DOOMed. Not funny. :/

That review has also reached the homepage of the Dutch tweaking/geek forum Tweakers.net. And our tireless Mike Bouma is making sure the Heathens are presented with lots of links to click on :-).
Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well.

My friend sent me the URL to the article, so I would say that it's pretty good publicity. I guess I should point out that he's not an Amiga user.

I think the article is quite accurate as far as I'm concerned...
