"33. All post-termination efforts by Hyperion to market any Amiga-related product employing Amiga's intellectual property is harming Amiga in ways that cannot be corrected by an award of money damages for a number of reasons."

So they are not after any cash, then.

And, as I have already posted, Section 33 of the document (that Piru provided the link to) indicates that A Inc are not pursuing money. It looks as if the purpose of the suit is to assert control over, and prevent unauthorised use of, the Amiga trademark. That includes versions of the OS after 3.0.
