"...and the full use of the Amiga trademarks"



Heh . . .heh

Yeah, but we all know that the Genesi/Morph/Peg people all disparage "the name" anyway. So we'll NEVER see them use an Amiga trade mark or even try to suggest that they're like Amiga. . . . RIGHT?

Paul

Lets' see. . . no Amiga bootcode. . . no OS4. . . . and no underlying operating system on which to run AmigaDE. Yup, that's sure going to be "an Amiga" isn't it???

BBRV and gang have an interesting way of defining trademarks then.

I just can't see any reasoning for except that they have the Amiga name. And that, to me, really, really makes the Amiga community futureless.


Well blow me down (using Popeye imitation)

My first post was right... With the Genesi/Morph/Peg gang "the name" _IS_ really useless. So glad to hear it! In that case, Genesi can just forget about this little "victory" in the courtroom and go about their business of making multi platform hardware and software which runs an Amiga emulator, and not bother putting the Amiga name on anything they sell.
