Well, I guess that means we found out who Genesi's set-top box partner is  :-D

That said, I think it is a monumentally stupid idea on Genesi's part to associate themselves with Merlancia.  That name is pretty much synonymous with fraud...

NOTE TO TROLLS: I don't want to hear anthing about "So is Amiga Inc" or "Genesi are frauds anyway"

Has Genesi really taken the initiative to "associate themselves with Merlancia"? Couldn't it be that Merlancia simply plans to buy a bunch of motherboards and put them into their own case design and sell them as "Amiga MCC Systems"?


Merlancia has Genesi under "partners", and I'm pretty sure that's a two-way thing (ie I can't sell hot dogs on the street and say that Oscar Meyer are my partners)

Merlancia are no "partner" of Genesi. Period.

Well, that sounds about par for the course for "Dr" Czerwinski then.    The page does seem out of date - Downix is mentioned as "a Merlancia partner for the design and production of the Merlancia Amiga MCC", and I'm pretty sure he's a Genesi employee, presumably spending a lot more time on the Peg2 than on the MCC :-D
