This is the most insightful comment I've read on here in a long time.

Amiga Inc. is a business. Businesses need revenue to remain solvent. Solvent businesses create products. The Amiga is a product.

It's clear that no matter what Amiga Inc. does, people will always question the sincerity of their motives. Either they don't do enough to secure partners or they conspire with the devil. Does anyone genuinely think Microsoft will buy Amiga to acquire a game pack that they are licensing from third parties and doesn't even run directly on their OS?

The original news item was directed at prospective partners for Microsoft's portable platforms initiative. McEwen's comments are included to help promote the advantages of the partnership program. It's not a manifesto. In fact, to the vast majority of the sentient world it's pure fluff. And so it should be.
