I don't really see the reason for people lashing out at AInc in every situation (hoping they will go bancrupt etc.)  They have done some seriously bad PR stunts, agreed. But do anyone actually think they wanted things to turn the way they did?


This is the information age.  So, where's the information?  One executive update every six months doesn't cut it in this market.  Amiga is either broke or totally absorbed in a special project with TAO and can't realease any information.  In either case, Amiga Inc. really has nothing to do with AmigaOS anymore.  If they do, they sure don't show it.

I agree with z5.  The early orders, the coupons... and then the damned silence.  This runs far deeper than just a bad PR stunt.  I bought the SDK and was immediately disturbed by the lack of anything but recycled JAVA apps already available to the PC world.  There wasn't much VP in there, never mind DE.  Serves me right.

Anyone want to buy a Win32 SDK?  ;)

Nobody can speculation on the situation at Amiga, since nobody is saying a peep, at least not officially.  All I know is that the way they run their business is amateurish, and with these kinds of business practices, I doubt they'll produce any software that will prove useful to anyone.

Also keep in mind that Hyperion drivers are made by VIA.   ;-)
