I don't know anything about "Commodore USA" or the guy running the show there and quite frankly all of the pissing and moaning about intellectual property isn't going to amount to anything other than to further demonstrate just how fractured the Amiga population is.

Heck, in the very earliest days of the Amiga's history there was one company who felt that Amiga was ripping off there their I.P. and re-branding it. Anyone remember that incident? In the end none of it made a crap pile worth of difference.

Lets face it, there are lots of great examples of really straight up companies in the Commodore / Amiga legacy.

i.e. Commodore, Merlancia, Gateway, Amiga inc., need I go on...

In the end it's all about making money or satisfying a passion, in many cases at someone else's expense. Who cares if this guy makes a few nickels selling Commodore branded stuff. Even if it was a "real" Commodore product, most of us wouldn't buy anyway cause we're cheap bastards and stuck in a time warp anyway.
