I have read numerous posts about Gateway selling the rights to use of their still owned patents. These are not AMIGA names. I also beleive most of the hardware rights was sold two. An exception was a patent for the two button mouse.
Most of the patents have either expired or will be expiring shortly.
They certainly don't own OS4 or 3.9. A Inc bought the rights to the OS and can do what they like to it. I don't rember the post from Fleecy Moss but I do rember reading it.
No, Amiga Inc owns WB 3.1. 3.5/3.9 is by H&P which has a dispute going with Amiga Inc over $. OS4, like 3.5/3.9, is owned by Hyperion and not Amiga Inc but also like H&P, is based on Amiga Inc IP so Hyperion only owns the code that does not infringe on Amiga Inc's IP. Unlike the H&P contract, it appears Amiga Inc can buy back OS4 for $25K.
