Thanks for posting that, Karlos! Jay was quite a guy. Early in the Amiga's history I became friends with Cheryl, the secretary at Amiga Los Gatos. Cheryl, whose signature is inside the A1000, was living with Dale Luck at the time (Cheryl sold me an official Amiga dev jacket which I picked up early one Saturday at Dale's house!)
On the day CBM ordered the offices closed, I called Cheryl and talked with her. I asked how Jay was doing with the news and she asked if I'd like to talk with him. I spent a good 30 minutes talking with Jay about the situation. He truly loved his creation and was very unhappy with CBM I recall. But what came through was what a great guy he was. I feel grateful to have had the opportunity to talk with him. He is still missed...
