Interesting... And possible hopeful!

How did a guy like this (read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentti_Kouri) get involved with the Amiga? Anyone know the back story? Tell us...

@Fingers:

Right... but there are certainly much better opportunities for investment than the Amiga market. So again, why would someone who ( presumably ) wanted to make a lot of money be involved with Amigas????

Was he perhaps in from the Commodite days? Anyone know?

@orb85750:

Well said!

@Quixote:

Very appropriate nickname, based on your comments... :-) Still "tilting at windmills", I guess, huh?


So, anyone know more about this guy's involvement with the Amiga? There's certainly little logic in investing in Amiga anything when there were so many better investments to be made. What drove this guy to the Amiga grounds? Was he once a user? Or did he simply know Bill McEwen?

That would be excellent news! Discreet's Bill is cool, unlike the other Bill.
