If Amithlon was an attempt at displacing AROS, are you saying AROS is a commercial product? I thought it was being made FOR FUN, god damnit!

 :-P

@bhogget:
I agree with your timeline, but a totally different one is being presented as "facts" by certain people over at ANN.

Maybe stop by there and tell Alkis how it should be? ;-)

Yeah. Being wrong at this time would actually be a refreshing bit of change, wouldn't it? Come on, people. Doesn't everyone want to be proven wrong just about now? :-P

@Terminills:

And they've modified their ultra-stable NT system so that games will run better, resulting in a less stable environment. That's a pretty big deal, actually. Especially for a company that makes software targetting office use... :-)

@bhogget:
"I'm with you on this one. The ridiculous story by "fleecy" that this is equipment brought in by the auctioneers and is being fraudulently passed off as having belonged to Amiga Inc. (presumably for no other reason than to spread more "FUD" about the company) is so laughable it isn't true."

Might I point you to a quote from the auction site?
" Some items on the main equipment list have been included in the sale from other parties. "

I just can't quite imagine why Amiga Inc would put 35 chairs, computers and 17/21 inch monitors in a 15 (6-8 times 2 cubicles plus 3 offices) people environment. The FACT is that SOME items in the list are NOT from Amiga Inc's office, there's no conspiracy theory about it (other than that "oooh, they had SO much equipment? no wonder they didn't have money".)

Please, _READ_ the links before making up your facts next time, please.

@Waccoon:
Let's just agree to disagree. I don't read it that way. It clearly says "some items in the main list have been included in the sale from other parties", and to me that means there's things in there that doesn't come from Amiga Inc.

It's referring to the main list, because these are items NOT listed by the "The following items were identified by Amiga employees as being vendor owned and wereonly used as "loaners"" list. If you get my drift.
