No really, is this a joke or hoax? Was it ever really on Amiga Inc's website?


Yeah, it's still up there as far as I can tell, maybe they took it down and put it back up?

The link to it is http://amiga.com/news/index.php?art=25

Or you can go to the News section on Amiga.com and it's the first link there.  

This great!!  Just like the good old days!   :lol:  :lol:  :lol:


Oh, I hear Doomy is doing all the building contract work.  Military Grade construction and all so this this thing should be able to withstand a nuclear attack!   :-D

Are you guys upset at Amiga advertising their name when they dont yet have any major products? I think I can see where you're coming from if thats the case. The stadium is a year away from completion if I read correctly, so that gives them time to get a product to market..


"City of Kent Sells Multi-Million Dollar Naming Rights for Proposed
Events Center to Global Tech Company Amiga"


Can you SELL naming rights to something that is ONLY PROPOSED?

Jahc, I myself think and maybe may others that have posted, that this is just another misinformation campaign by Amiga Inc.

This is possibly one of a few things:

1. Either this is just totaly false...

2. Amiga conned these people and said "Hey, if you "Do" build this "Proposed" building we will pay "Millions" for the name which of course they won't as they don't even have money to pay a decent web designer a few hundred dollars.

3. They lied just about the "Multi-Million Dollar" part and "The Stadium" is actually the size of a 2 bedroom house.


@jahc
They lied about EVERYTHING else in the press release why would you believe any of this?  
Do you believe Amiga Inc is the "world’s premier provider of multi-media enabling technologies"?
