Yeah and how long before he actually asks for his money like the city of Kent?  AI is very generous with contracts but stingy with real money.

Won't he be surprised with AI offers him the €0.47 that it offered Kent.

"Mr. Dramis will play an integral part in shaping the company’s application and hardware development strategies"

So at last Amino admit they had no strategies...

Bring back Jim Collas and Petro instead of some lamer phone company person who has probably never even seen an Amiga.

Die Amino Die!

I think many here are reading too much into this.

Nobody knows what the Amiga Advisory Board is.  Have we even heard of it before?  I don't think so.

If it is anything like other companies, Fran'll just turn up (or even just do a conference call) every few months and pick up a small remuneration of a few thousand $.  More likely he will be offered stock in A inc.

I think they are just being seen to be doing someting frankly.  They have a court case to fight after all.

Everyone's just bored with the lack of real news or progress from AmiInc.

And moving on to items that actually matter...
My Mame cabinet building project is moving along quite nicely. Maybe I'll form an advisory board to decide on the type of side art I'll use.  :lol:

Yeah, I think you're right.

I think the litmus test would be if any of us would quit
our day jobs to be on the Amiga Advisory Board.

Obviously not.
