Good God man, I reserve charity for the needy! By "needy" I mean people with life-threatening diseases, or widows and orphans... or, oh man, anything but oh hell nevermind.

Only Amiga.

Alright, let me try this again...

Amiga is a "for profit" Corporation. When one wishes to invest in a "for profit" Corporation they do this as an "investor".

Why the hell would you give away money to a company that will consider it a "profit" for OTHERS who "invested" while giving you none of those profits in return?

If you really wish well, and believe in, Amiga Incorporated, invest in them as an "investor" so that if they become profitable you wil be rewarded for that investment.

Heck, If I had a cool couple million laying around, I'd buy the trademark and OS, and dump it violently into the public domain.

(Then I'd hire a reeealy good divorce lawyer and bodyuard, because although I've been known to blow alot on hobbies, THAT one would blow her mind :-P )
