Bodoni XT is for sure the Amiga Classic logo and not the "new" one....

Any hint?

Yup, I'm pretty sure it is the same front (the original is italic, the AT one is normal), but the AT logo has some of the serifs cut off, this would have been done after the font was rendered, by a graphic designer!

-Edit- just checked, it is definitely the same font :)

The "classic" Amiga font is ITC Garamond bold italic.

I do not agree ... I am sorry.... there would be a name of this font... because I see it somewhere i.e.

http://www1.seamilano.eu/landing/index_it.html

So.... anybody does know the name of this font?

Thanks
