My question for Bill would be:

What is the exact relation between Amiga and Microsoft ?


If its one thing i dislike about the fornightly questions to fleecy its that most of them can be answerd by asking the a few people and by doing a little research. Im not totaly sure about this question but i'll have a shot.

MS market Amiga Anywhere games. MS much like what Amgia are to DE games developers MS is to Amiga.

Amiga helps developers have their content developed recognised on the AmigaDE platform and MS helps amiga have its content run and recognised on MS platforms. Because of this, Amiga gets a cut of the revenues and so does MS.

MS is simply putting some marketing muscle behind the AmigaDE titles to help their platform and to take a biut of the revenue.
