No news is good news????
« on: February 25, 2003, 02:57:31 PM »
Its been a while since we heard anything from AI about AmigaOne or OS 4.0. The most recent thing on their web site is a story by Microsoft PressPass about the PocketPC package they came out with back in April last year! Are they holding their cards close to their chest? Are they planning some grand annoucement in March? Are they too busy to talk? In other words: WHERE THE H*LL ARE THEY?

Personally, I would appreciate  some words of encouragement rather than silence. What do you think?  :-(

How did you learn to live with the Bomb (AI) and Stop Worrying? :-P

Well, for us club members the last info arrived not so long ago, so i am rather pleased for now :-)

I am surprised that the info sent out has yet to show up on the web, has everybody kept quiet ??



Mumbles is the word. If you have any info I would like to hear it. But so far the message is not clear.

 :-D hehe, well we are supposed to keep it a secret me thinks, but usually someone opens the floodgates, better be .inc this time.



OK, I'll bite, just throw me a bone. WHEN will we KNOW something? Give us a time estimate or something. I mean, is this suppose to be a surprise party or is this a Members Only thing? :-?

Can you imagine it:
IBM has made a breakthrough and are about to release a revolutionary product. BUT, you have to pay $50 to hear what it is all about. Hell, we don't want the whole world to know that we have something for sale.

Brilliant PR, once again!


I think Z5 has a point here. If you really want people (that means everyone in the developed world) to know about a new product, you wouldn't give it out to only a select few, unless there was some great fortune to knowing this. I mean, I could see if we were talking about insider trading, but A Inc. doesn't have any public stock. Why the secret? Is this some kind of award for showing how loyal you are to them? Club Amiga is already very small, do they want to make it smaller? Either they are geniuses or dumb as bricks. :-o
