I know there have been a couple of "looking back over 2007" threads, but here are a few personal thank yous I thought needed to be made to some people who have worked particularly hard in 2007!
Dennis van Weeren
For the MiniMig. Your relentless hard work has given us the first new Amiga in years, and has opened so many doors. I think the importance of this development has not yet been realised!
Jens Schoenfeld
For developing hardware which breathes new life in to our old Amigas.
AmigaKit
For your continuing hard work, excellent service and ongoing dedication.
ACube
For taking a chance on distributing OS4 and manufacturing MiniMigs. I sincerely hope your gamble pays off, and that you will reinvest some of your profits in to future Amiga projects.
AmigaMac
For leaking the OS4 boot CD. Here's hoping we can get it to do more than show the OS4 kickstart screen :-)
The AROS team
For continuing to work hard on an alternative to waiting for a viable OS4 solution.
Wayne and the amiga.org team
Last but not least thanks to Wayne and all the mods here at amiga.org for your ongoing hard work.
Sorry for anyone I've missed. Please feel free to add to this list :-)
[EDIT] Added AROS [/EDIT]

Amiga Future
For being a great mag and taking over Total Amiga. Still amazes me that you have a cover cd
Rich Lawrence, Sean Fitzgerald, Mike Blackburn and Bill Panagouleas
For Amiga roundtable keeping us up to date and adding some very needed humour into the amiga scene.
Discreet Fx
For keeping the amiga video editing dream alive and getting Alladin 4D
Hyperion
For finally gettin os4 out to the public during a legal battle
{edit} Added Hyperion

Seconded. Thanks everyone, just for being a great community. Names that come to mind, Moto, Cecilia, da9000, Adz, Karlos, X-Ray (you still round, dude?), Blobrana (I enjoy your astronomy posts) and Piru (keeper of all knowledge Amigan).
Well, other names come to mind, but these are first to mind for me.
Cheers all, really appreciate the community here!

I wish to thanks to LordV, for the 8Mb A600, too.
And to Andre Palmatè, for the OWB. I hope it will be ported to 68k soon. :hammer:
-
I'd just like to give a shout out of thanks to everyone here. Having come back to the Amiga world after years away was one Hell of a ride. I have received a lot of help from people here as I fix (and break) things along the way. Without you guys answering my at times absurd questions I would be lost, well more lost than normal.
:-)
-
@Moto... If you say so! :lol: Your stuff will be in the post tomorrow. :-)
-
I thank the dancing banana. Without which, my posts would be :sleep:. ;-)
:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

I'd like to thank DoomMaster's barber. It must be hard for him to keep a straight face when Doomy comes in and says, ''Make me look like Sarge from DOOM!!!'' :-o
-
Sarge from Doom? Surely the b*stard offspring of Mr. Bean and Gomer Pyle! :lol:

How about a dancing carrot??? (http://pages.infinit.net/bluefire/Images/carrot.gif)
just to add veggies to your diet :-D
I'd like to thank everyone here who has EVER made me laugh - Karlos may be at the top of that list, but it's still fairly long. The list, I mean :lol:
-
Thanks to the people of Amiga.org!
I have gotten so much help here that without I would have been stuck.
-
Ok, here's a BIG thank you to Tokyoracer for the awesome CD32 I got today, for a bargain price plus a stick of RAM :-D Tokyoracer is a stand-up guy, very friendly, and very generous. He even threw in a FREE A500 floppy drive which I needed for my 1581 kit.
You're on the top of the list for any goodies mate ;-)

While I agree with most people on the list I have my doubts about AmigaMac. This guy could be the one that stole the laptop from the Moana developer; (potential) criminals should'nt be honoured.

You are welcome Moto. :-)
