@amigamad,

But thats the point its not an amiga.
In case you haven't noticed, no one makes Amiga computers any more.  I don't care how you want to defend it, and it doesn't matter whether you want Eyetech's solution or Genesi's.  The only possible solution that you can get now are "Amiga Compatible" systems.

If Amiga Inc fails tomorrow, are you going to still rabidly defend the AmigaOne because they licensed (and some say killed) some intangible piece of paper which was labelled "Amiga trademarks"?

AmigaOne != Amiga just because someone wants to call it that.  MorphOS runs Amiga software, AmigaOS 4.0 reportedly runs Amiga software.  There is *NO* AmigaOS 4.0 software, so what the hell is the big fury over that?

The only safe bet here is to back the company who is actually producing something and have the money and business plan to back it up.  Bill Buck is meeting with Senators and Wall street attorneys.  He's also showing off the Pegasos to high tech businesses and selling the boards by the hundreds.    What's Bill McEwen doing these days aside from hiding in Montana getting his nails done?

Your wrong the amigaone would not be called an amiga if it was not an amiga that would be plain stupid.
It can't be any more stupid than your argument.  

If Microsoft (Amiga Inc's "major partner", remember?) were to create an x86 system and call it "an Amiga", would that make it "an Amiga"?  Of course not.  How does Eyetech calling their repackaged Teron motherboard "an Amiga" make it an "Amiga"?  Hyperion doesn't even have an Operating System and if they did, it will be HyperionOS, so I won't even fight that section of the argument.
