So, any idea how this fits with Commodore USA?  This is a tad confusing.  Is Amiga, Inc. just selling off right in every country around the globe?

Aminet should have told them, "Nope, we're fine. We got NatAmi & MiniMig, AROS, Amiga OS 4, Morphos, AmigaOnes, and UAE."

The specs look a lot more interesting than the ones used by CUSA.

They mentioned getting approval from Bill McEwon in that article. Did I miss something in the last 1-2 yrs? Last time I checked, he was involved with Efika. I know that he's been actively trying to get involved or even buy Amiga.

IIRC, didn't Escom sell rights to some Chinese companies? Such as Lotus Pacific, etc. Perhaps it's linked to one of those deals, rather than Amiga Inc?

Maybe AmigaAnywhere should be renamed, AmigaONAnything.

I wounder if they will be running Kickstart 6.0?

Its a real shame that the Amiga brand is most likely going to become what the Commodore brand has been, used on anything they think they can sell, two great names ruined.

IContain my excitement.

"August 31, 2010: Commodore USA Announces Acquisition of Amiga Exclusive Worldwide Licensing Rights"

Doesn't seem too exclusive now does it?

I find that rather odd statement since they haven't released very much tech information on their Amiga series.
