I am sadly neither amazed or even surprised that after what must be at least one year away from all things Amiga I return for a quick check and see that practically nothing has changed.

What a waste!   :-(

More like a stasis chamber. Frightening, really.

I think pretty much everyone with any sense knew that back then, but it's not just about the new/old Amiga Inc. Everything about the Amiga scene - including AROS - seems frozen in time. Nothing has changed, nothing's moved on or evolved at all. You could cut and paste any old thread from the past four years into a thread on the same subject today and it would still make perfect sense. It would be virtually impossible to tell the comments were years apart.

I came back to see what was new on the scene after being away for so long, and the conclusion is "nothing". It's so sad.

Neither is "deluded", but don't let that stop you.
