Wow Steven, thats just too funny.
So, Mr. Altman, I have a few q's for you good chap:
1. Whats the point of using the Amiga nameplate on something not even resembling an Amiga product? We aren't naive enough to take such bait, and frankly, it is very insulting
2. What percentage of markup do you apply to your off the shelf components, it seems dreadfully high?
3. Why did you back out of your deal with AROS? Even though I myself dislike AROS it seems like a shoot-yourself-in-the-arse move for you.
Final one is a piece of advice I would like to suggest to you. First off, apologize to all the developers of OS4, MOS etc. who you accuse of illegal activity, as you yourself do not have the legal basis to enforce this. Second of all, you should come up with some solution to make your products distinctive/competitive. One thing to try would be to use off the shelf ARM, X86 or PowerPC components and manufacture an ATX or Mini-ITX formfactor board which you then stuff into a case reminiscent of some Amiga product (I'd suggest the A500 or A3000, for its looks.) One idea would be to go out on a further limb and make a system that uses a simple off the shelf CPU, a GPU, a DMA controller chip, a DSP chip, a sound chip and some extra logic chips, and then market it as a Media Center system. There are ways to skin existing OSes into easier to use interfaces.
