So when will we know what's happened to Amiga, Inc.?

They are busy in the gulf helping with the oil spill cleanup efforts. Bill McEwen and crew have teamed up with Kevin Costner.

"Did you hear Bill McEwen's helping out with the oil spill?"

"No?"

"Yeah, he's going to plug the gap with boing balls."

AmigaDE made a hell of a lot of better business sense than AOS4. It allowed them the possibility to float their platform on everything under the sun. Problem was, their platform wasn't that great and they didn't have the resources to force the market into using it. I

Yeah AmigaDE actually made good commercial sense.

Wasn't obviously what Amiga fanboys wanted, but then again that's a tiny market.

Problem is Java was around at that time too, it's free, you don't have to share revenue with AInc and it's supported by BIG companies.

It was really a no-brainer.
