OK,the patent collecting idea makes sense ,too. For a few million which is chump change to any real computer company Gateway has protection in case of some multimedia attack as well as keeping a potentially competitive system off the market.
A few real old-timers around Cincinnati Ohio politics have said that GM paid the city to close down the streetcars so the people would buy more automobiles for commuting.
More than one company in other fields have bought out a competitor and then shut it down.
Expecting judges or the government to force someone to design,build,or market a product goes against the western free market ideal. Evidently no one with the clout,drive,vision ,or just plain greed is there to push for an Amiga revival.
It is frustrating to know how much money is being spent on death and destruction every day, both by governments and individuals while good things are ignored.
For 1% of what Americans spend on recreational and self-destructive drugs the Amiga could be updated and widely promoted.
