This is just lame. If you want to do something for the amiga, start a petition to buy back the name & rights from AInc. I don't know their price, but judging from the look of their website and their desperate actions, it can't be that much. Buy back the name and give it someone who will make something useful with. Like Jens Schonfeld, or Dennis van Weeren, or Hyperion or Genesi even ... Maybe all.

for something similar, see amizilla

Why ? The way I see it, the amiga name & community is just PITA for them they have to bother with, and waste the webspace & bandwidth from their 20$/month introductory website account. I think they can be persuaded to disassociate with the amiga community for the right amount of money.

I don't think that Kent center is a big deal. Isn't Bill McEven a local of the area ? Probably he got some contacts and maybe some 'cracknut' amiga fans helped him get the deal. I don't think he spent big bucks for it, it feels like they're trying to put a 'we're a big company' image.

I read the news article, but at this point I take every information coming from AInc with a grain of salt.
