The Jim Collas rumor, truth or rumor? I say rumor.

Wayne:  Things under Gateway's Amiga at least SEEMED to be moving forward which is much more than can be seen or demonstrated currently.

I believe Wayne was talking about Amiga Inc. only.  A lot of people believe Hyperion and Eyetech are doing all the work while Amiga Inc is basicly just a cardboard cutout...

...much like the MCC.   ;-)

@TakeMeHomeToGrandma:  Ahh...  version numbers.  I really wish companies would treat these more seriously.  Amiga companies seem to do pretty well with this, though.

McEwen said himself he wanted to take the word "computer" out of the picture, entirely.  Sure.  I have a hard enough time figuring out compatibility problems with Windows products as it is.  Might as well try to delude ourselves into thinking a computer is much simpler than it really is.

I for one, continue to think that computers are tools.  Very fun tools, but tools nonetheless.  They should always be treated as such, and that includes proper training and not hiding necessary information from users.

You're looking for version numbers?  I'm trying to find out what happened to manuals!   :-D

I still remember an MP3 of one of his pep rallies.  I'm paraphrasing a bit, but still:

"[Years ago], a terrible thing happened!  Innovation... innovation stopped!"

Gee, then where did these little things called 3D accelerators come from?  I never met the guy, but I just saw a salesman trying to push a product that had no real backing from its parent company.
