I don't understand this whole thing.  Surely, by now, they lawsuit has probably cost more than the whole Amiga market is worth.

Just why is Amiga still alive?  It really doesn't make sense.  They have no products, the legacy stuff is next to worthless now.  They burned through all their VC money by 2002.  Why keep the company on semi-life-support for 6 years?  It really doesn't make any sense at all.  All it seems to have done is bled money.

Or do they really collect that many royalties off of Amiga Forever?

I wonder if there are any other employees other than McBill - are Fluffy Muff and that ex-QNX guy still there?   What about HMetal, I wonder if he is still the web master.

I reckon, Amiga's benefactor would be wise to sell the lot to BBRV or some other nutcase for 10 grand or something like that.

There is something decidedly sinister about the whole thing.

I had considered that, but then surely, the court case is the last thing they'd pursue.  Why bring attention to it?
