Who cares????
There is AmigaOS 4.0 with upgrades up to AOS 4.999999999999999999999999999....
There is MorphOS.
And there is AROS.
Tao still owns that Intent stuff.
Amiga is still a trademark of Gateway and Commodore and they don´t object to me using it.  :-)
So unless you
1) are a former employee who they own wages
2)are Hyperion, Eyetech, Genesi or someone else who wants to secure part the trademark.
3)want a t-shirt

it doesn´t matter.
Having said that i hope that Amiga Inc goes bankcrupt so the former employees can get what they are owed and that the trademark either is bought by Hyperion or reverts to Gateway and is keept unused by them(Gateway).

Okay, let's test that theory. Show me where you use the trademark.


Oh, i didn´t mean commercial use.
But i have this Amigasticker at my tower and i also printed a t-shirt. :-D
I also have an A1200 it says Amiga on the casing of it and i use it all the time. :-D
Just look at this thread i used the word Amiga several times. Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga Amiga.
I can even say that MorphOS and WinUAE let´s you run Amiga programs faster than an Amiga.
And you can´t sue me, isn´t that annoying?

Hyperion is doing a terrific job with AmigaOS 4.0. However, Amiga has a lot to do with AmigaOS 4.0 and beyond.


We know exactly what Amiga DE Inc has to do with
AmigaOS 4.0!!!!!
Pay for the name....

And a lot of MorphOS webpages use the trademark and get away with it.
 You didn´t buy the Amiga name from Gateway you just licensed it. So i think that Gateway can do whatever they want with it, they would be foolish if they made a contract to the contrary. They are a PC company, legal battles is everyday work for them...
I don´t know what´s up with that mysterious deregistration of the Amiga trademark but its probably because they want to keep it out of a bankcrupcy or something...

Maybe I should start an clothes firm, i was thinking of using the name Amiga. That way i could sue your asses if you ever released any t-shirts with the name Amiga. :lol:
