It's just a bit strange that the company registration is listed as "inactive" and the license has expired 09/30/2004.


That's cos they're now a registered corporation in Delaware after the whole ITEC/KMOS 'hide the IP from our creditors' game.
 AFAIK, 'they' are still in Washington, and use Garry Hare's  home as a mail drop..yeah, a real professional outfit, but do we really expect anything else from them.
On schedule, and suing

Me totally confused now... This company is definitely not from Delaware...


They don't have to be based in Delaware, they just need an agent there to register them, file financial reports etc. It's just cos Delaware is more 'corporation friendly'..ie it saves Amiga Inc money.

KMOS, the 'company' set up by Hare was a registered Delaware corporation.
They 'bought' Amiga Inc, then changed their name from KMOS to Amiga Inc in 2003.
 Shortly after, Garry Hare left the all new Amiga Inc ( 20% less fat,40% more meaningless buzzwords) and suprise suprise,Bill McEwen reappeared in charge.

And if McEwen is reading this thread... Don't worry Bill, your job is almost done, only a thousand or so Amigans left to alienate and scare away to other platforms. Not a bad job considering there were 15,000 of us that bought OS3.5  :madashell:
