Note that AInc don't really have a very positive history in court cases, even with "solid evidence".

Although they might just get away with this one. Genesi's evidence seemed flimsy and perhaps too much relying on the fact AInc wouldn't be able to scrape together any kind of legal representation.

If AInc survive again, the Amiga community doesn't get the sense of closure it needs and the pantomime is dragged on for years more. Because, make no mistake on this, AInc are still in no position to do real business or to do anything positive for the Amiga.

I think the judge will look upon Bill Bucks evidence supplied under perjory that he would have known was not reliable and yet he supplied it as fact, and which in fact turned out to be faked, and then Bill Buck did not inform the court of this.


If you mean the e-mail, I'm sure everyone on the planet knows emails can be faked. They aren't a secure media and never were, and I'm suprised Buck even decided to add one to his evidence. But the double edge sword of this means, that while they are useless as evidence, presenting a faked one doesn't really amount to perjury, since its impossible to prove their authenticity either way.

It seems Amiga are claiming that most of Bill Bucks evidence is misleading or down right lies.


Of course they are, it's a court case, you don't win them by agreeing with the opponent. :-)

The question here is really not who we believe, it is who are the court going to believe? Will it be Amiga Inc., hiding its assets, and with a history even more checkered than their boing ball, or Genesi and its weak evidence?

How do you know they didnt?? I believe the parts involved has known about this for a while now..


And yet they didn't tell anyone outside their circle, preferring to put a false face on it and denounce anyone who speculated too close to the truth as liars and idiots. Compare this to Genesi, who are open about their faults and have never kept problems they have secret. And yet they're the one being demonised in this whole affair.

Ironic.
