My opinion as a person: I hope that McEwen is gone, and that he has to work for Chris Aldi, Juurgen Haage, Felix, or any of the guys he's screwed-over in the past. I want him to eat out of the same plate a lot of developers had to eat out of.


I wouldn't shed any tears of sympathy for Mr. Haage, that's for sure. While the popular perception seems to be that Amiga Inc treated H&P very badly, the evidence tends to suggest that throughout Amiga Inc's existence H&P have sold Amiga Inc IP in several of their products (OS 3.5, OS 3.9, Amiga Dev CD 2.1, StormC, AmigaOS XL), and not a single cent of this ever made its way back into the Amiga Inc coffers. If anyone got screwed, it sure as heck wasn't Haage.

I bought amigaos3.9 because i wanted Amigaos3.9 i would not ever buy anything that i did not want just to help out Amiga.inc.


Just as well, since Amiga Inc would not have profited in any way from your puchase. They got no revenue or license fees from sales of OS 3.9.
