Sadly, this will probably not end until Bill is in his grave.
I generally wish no one ill, but...

@BozzerBigD

it occasionally brings in money. his latest scam -- with 'amiga games, inc.' and 'WRIT media group' -- brought him thousands. and every now and again some folks approach him to purchase the marks outright. one of these days i'm sure he'll sell. we can only hope to someone worthy.

I'd suggest suggest A-eon, but the convoluted agreement between Hyperion and Amiga Inc. limits the utility in owning Amiga Inc's property rights for Trevor.

Tell me again why we arent all writing (spamming) Bill with how he's continuously oildrilling our belolved one for resources, trying to get a few, lousy bucks out of an old name...

Also, why arent we kickstarting buying amiga.com back? Then kickstarting a hit on Bill? Seriously, i would chip in quite a lot...:-)

Uh, maybe because its not a good idea?
Bill sets the price for his asset.
And I doubt that even though the real world value is low, that his price would be anything but ridiculously high.

And do you want to enrich this guy?

Further, spamming is of limited utility.
Its more likely to just harden his resolve rather than make him give up.

Lol, how old is McBill now anyway? may not have long to wait.

Good question.
I cannot find much info on Bill on the web, outside of his days with Gateway and the early actions of his two Amiga Inc. entities.
No Facebook, Twitter, or other social media listing, and no web page outside of Amiga Inc.

You can find much more on the average Joe via a Goggle search than you can on Bill.
Its weird.

Amiga Inc. reminds me of Merlancia Industries.

So, anyone care to explain to me why it wouldn't have been better to have bPlan/Genesi in control of the Amiga name?

OK, is that OUR Bill?
I don't have a Linkedin profile, so I can not check that our.
