Scary stuff. That was the last WoA I ever went to. It was {bleep}e compared to years gone by. More of a car boot sale.
I used my position at Argonaut software to get into the closed doors developers meetings where I met people from Vulcan and a few others. Anyhow the Amiga guys were assholes. Their tech guy, an indian man, who seemed to be so knowledgeable in general conversation, knew almost nothing about Amiga architecture and even less about hardware design and FPGA's.
In the meeting they were {bleep}ting that they had a 400MHz 3D accelerator architecture in development to rival 3DFX and nVidia and what they actually had was a development board from a 3rd party company called... what were the called... something... brothers?? Bros? (no not bitmap).... Baltic / Scandinavian company cannot remember but their designs never got made. I recognised the photos from the web instantly embarrassing several of the Amiga execs in conversation.
Were you involved with the SuperFX chip dev?
