Has CommodoreUSA shipped anything?

[A1260]

i dont pay any notice to this so called commodore usa anymore, sounded nice when it first did break the news. but it just dawned on me fast that this was just another kent arena. http://www.commodoreusa.net is a patchwork of photos of computer cases copied from other sites, 3d renderings taken from other amiga users, copy and paste texts from apple.com and other sites. these guys have $30million budget and the web page looks like its done by a 12 year old and a shoe string budget. when bill mcewan did announced the multimillion dollar kent arena sponsoring, the timing was about when they were trying to sell amiga, so the kent arena case is in my opinion a try to raise the valuation. after november the first announcement, amiga are selling everything via http://www.pluritas.com. i would draw the same conclusion, its the same old story. make a big announcement, then try to sell.

As a MorphOS user with real concern over the use of relatively stagnant trademark I'm more concerned about this - if they do produce anything how will that affect those of you that are still rabidly concerned about what is and what isn't an Amiga?

Think about it. An Amiga shipping w/o an OS or with Linux or Windows.

think about this, how would you liked if Genesi bought a licence for the Amiga name, and started using the Amiga brand instead of MorphOS. how would that affected you?

I've been trying to point out to diehard MorphOS users for some time that Genesi isn't really important to us anymore. They don't current sell any MOS capabile equipment. Their last Efika motherboard uses an ARM processor (which they're now focusing on instead of PPCs) and their focusing on Linux as their OS of choice.

Genesi gave up on the Amiga market awhile ago. It seems unlikely they would condsider anything like you've mentioned. But if they did, they'd probably favor Linux (which Barry Altman has mentioned) for the new system.

when genesi made their os they was planing to release it as amigaos, but since they didnt get the name at the time they named it morphos. genesi as a company know very well that a well known brand will sell a product more than a unknown brand. so again if you as a long time morphos user, got the news by genesi that they now have a licence for the amiga brand and was gonna change from morphos name to the amigaos name. how would that affected you as user?
