So, lets all band together and boycott everything except one copy of everything one of us bought. Then, we wait. Wait. Alright, they stopped selling everything anymore. Time to break out the copier.


Strange comment?!? I see no problem in distributing Amithlon to help other amiga users to get such a system... Why not? Who cares for apes inc. :) You will harm nobody, because Amithlon was/is a product that is not buyable since several years...


But I am not distributing it, I have original hardware. ;)

It doesn't matter if it harms nobody, and it doesn't matter that we may want to hurt "Apes Inc" (sic), but the fact is you will be breaching copyright and that is illegal. You can't pick and choose the laws you want to follow, if you expect the law to protect you you have to follow the law.


Do not forgett to say that USING, even if you bought it at the beginning legally, is not allowed too, because there is no official licence!!!

Now everybody has to delete his installation, if he want to follow the laws that protect him...
