Once I get my A1, I'll ask for my fifty bux. If they fanny me about, I'll let you guys know and you can all flame happily without me defending them. Until then, I can't really say they've lied about it.


Well, the email I got at the beginning of August said that my my coupon and T-Shirt would be delivered in a few weeks.  This is almost 5 months later and still not received anything.  Hence, I would say that Amiga Inc. lied.  I really can't think of any other way to put it.

And from the AmigaAnywhere shop:-

"When you join the "I am Amiga Club" ...  you will receive a shirt signifying your membership, a coupon that can be used for a USD 50.00 (EUR 50.00, or GBP 32.50) discount on an AmigaOne, or OS 4.0 (for those of you who wish to run this new OS on your existing 3rd-party PPC cards) you will also receive a newsletter, and throughout the next 12 months you will be the first to learn of new products."

Well, I joined and have recieved no shirt, no coupon, no newsletter, and haven't been told about any new products.  So this was all a lie too.

They should change it to:-

"When you join the "I am Amiga Club" ...  you will receive an email some weeks later thanking you for joining and making some vague promise about an as-yet-undesigned shirt, non-existant newsletter, and vaporware coupon.  You will then wait 6 months wondering if you're actually going to recieve anything before eventually giving up and resigning yourself to the fact that you just wasted 50 bucks."
