Ultra Electronics Acquires Privately-held AmigaOne X-1000 maker Varisys - Quick Facts

[Rob]

Are you sure this wasn't the game all along? To make some quick cash and move on?
I wish we had of kept only the people who would stick with the platform at great sacrifice.

Nothing in the release implies that the internal structure of Varisys has in anyway changed.  They simply now a subsidiary of Ultra.

Make some quick cash??

I think he assumed that the founders have left.  I think that it was probably more of an opportunity to grow the business.

Hi Rose

No super secret information here or claimed as such.  What damage is there to control BTW.

If any of you truly believe some parent company one look at something like x1000 as a waste of resources or a no profit product that costs more to produce than the profit it generates, a waste of resources and time, sucking cash from their bottom line your all on drugs.

Business people don't care about anything but profits. They won't allow a subsidiary of theirs to dump time, money or r+d into non profitable projects.

You are even crazier if you somehow believed that A-EON had some kind of special privilege with Varisys.  Fact is that he (Trevor) paid them the going rate for a service and they provided the service, simples.  Parent company won't give a flying duck what they do so long as it's profitable and they get their share.
