The guy with the CD1200 on his bonnet
« on: July 06, 2010, 10:17:39 PM »
This was interesting... I finally found out the name of the guy with the CD1200 on the bonnet of his car and discovered one heck of a story... I assume its the same guy.

I guess some of you know all about this story. Its the comments from the case that take you all the way to AROS. My goodness, and all I was trying to find out is if this guy may still have the CD1200 and if he would sell it. Probably want $300 000 for it...

Who is Ryan E. A. Czerwinski and what did he do to Nova Design?

Sorry in advance if there are two people with the same name.

Reading the comments the one that made me giggle was...

"We went to go get it. The warehouse was empty. Pallets and pallets of our product had been stolen"

lol Amiga Inc deserved that.

........... As many of the comments suggested this should be made into a book. This is what Haynie said about  Merlancia...

'Merlancia, again, is a fraud, there is no MCC. If they ever manage to sell anything, it’ll be a Pegasos or some other PCB in their casework (they buy the cases from established vendors, they don’t even make those). '

This guy has an A4000T original image in The Big Book of Amiga Hardware. The CD1200 was a link from that site and his car featured in the images from the court case is the car with the CD1200 sitting on it... Amazing story. Well worth a read. I know most probably know all about this but for those like me reading it for the first time it adds a whole new dimension to the goings on post Commodore.
