Genesi Won Lawsuit against Amiga Inc.

[cdog]

Just who is doing the hijacking here? Those who have the trademark currently, purchased it and said intellectual property from Gateway (with the backing of VC, of course). If AInc is guilty of anything, it's writing bad contracts with sharks like Bill Buck and not being well funded or sucessful enough to vigorously defend their IP and trademarks (and I will grant you - a certain amount of ineptness and dodgy fund raising).

@Argo

That's an intersting point.

I'll amend my statement to the following:

AInc's biggest mistep may well turn out to be signing a bad contract with a company that had what appears to be better legal representation (i.e. swimming with sharks of the litigious kind:)

"At the time of the contract signing, Amiga Inc was represented by a rather well respected legal firm."


If it does turn out that we are in fact talking about a default judgement, we are left with the possibility that the case was not really decided on its merrits, but rather on the fact that one side didn't show up (i.e. could not pay for legal representation - this is what I was thinking of). In effect, that was then - this is now.

I want to hear more before I jump to any hasty conclusions, however. So should all concerned.
