With all the questions of whether "Is Amiga Inc alive?" or not, I thought to write to Bill McEwen himself to see whether the lights were still on. Within an hour, I got a long, well-written reply and an offer to directly answer 25 questions from the Amiga community...
In short, Bill wants everyone to know that they are still, very much alive despite the many popular rumors to the contrary. His standing offer is to take questions from Amiga.org users and they will answer the top 25 (as determined by the Amiga.org staff) as completely as possible.
That being said, a few words of [color=ffa500]caution[/color].
What this is...
This is a chance for the Amiga community to ask questions and have them directly answered by Bill McEwen in an open exchange. You can ask anything you want, as long as it's a legitimate question regarding Amiga Incorporated, it's products, plans, and future.
What this is [color=cc0000]NOT[/color]
- This is not a chance for politics and agendas
- This is not an excuse to act like children and hurl insults
- This is not an excuse for personal attacks and delving into the personal lives of Amiga Inc staff members.
Post your questions in comment form below.
On the 8th of September, I will collect the questions and the moderators and I will correlate them and select the top 25 questions. Once selected, all of the questions will be passed directly to Amiga Inc.
Mr. McEwen has stated that he will answer 25 questions.
If there are more legitimate questions than that, we will select the best 25 and put them at the top of the list. It's up to them if they want to answer more. If there are fewer than 25 legitimate questions, all will be passed to Amiga Inc for their response.
