It wasnt Nate Downes deciding awards, was it?

what about this then?
9. Amiga OS 4.0 (Amiga)

Perhaps not coincidentally, Amiga also made the same No. 9 slot in last year's Vaporware Awards for failing to ship its long-promised, next-generation Amiga machines. Well, the hardware appeared but the operating system is still missing.

"After four years of promises and slipped schedules (original release date June 2001), this is still vapor in the extreme," wrote reader Nate Downes. "They have resorted to demos of a pre-alpha version running on a Mai reference motherboard, with hopes and dreams of it shipping by the end of the month. They always fail to mention which month."

"wrote reader Nate Downes." <---- this is lame enough..

Tell me Tomas, how is this worse than Alan Redhouse's comments that the Pegasos was deliberately being underpriced to destroy Eyetech?

I never heard about that, but indeed this is wrong too, if this is infact true. I really still doubt that Alan posted this to a public news site, as Genesi here did... This was just another attempt of hurting Amiga..

Lame? Maybe, but Nate is a computer user stating an opinion. He's no CEO of genesi and was not speaking for them. His one vote certainly did not decide the award.

It is not even fact! AmigaOS4 was never promised for 2003 afaik....
