Infringement of AmigaOS trademark

[dammy]

Lets face it, Amiga Inc and their products are not for retail order but are sold through the web. Will they overlap each other?  All technology overlaps one another but for those that want a portable Amiga.  Well, Amiga Inc and Hyperion have not been able to market a portable product.  I personally dont see a case but I think Hyperion and Amiga Inc have better things they could spend their remaining funds on rather than engaging in a lawsuit that will probably outlive both companies.

I take it that Amiga Inc is still up for sale?

just ask the source

Too much effort, lol.  Since that law firm is involved, I'm going to take a wild guess and say it still hasn't been sold yet.

Single-core aware only/32-bit only OSes are decidedly "retro".

Retro would be painting something that was once was socially the norm.  IMNSHO, "irrelevant" would be a far better description then "retro."

[dammy]

So irrelevant you are obsessed with the topic.

Oh my, looks like I just stepped on someone's toes.

[dammy]

they did that on the base of a contract with this one-person company. But also Hyperion has threatened in the past so both Hyperion and AmigaInc. defend the "Amiga trademark" and try to hinder other persons/companies to use it. But in the end the trademark will not decide the faith.

And it was Hyperion that sent a nastygram about any licensed Amiga system by C=USA that had a clone of OS4 on it would violate their agreement with AI.

Hmmm...actually this report indicates "active"

I just checked State of Florida records and it was:

So Dammy any of the X64s still available or were they all shipped off to Italy?

No clue, I never asked that question to Leo.

[dammy]

I'm guessing they sold less than 100 c64x's during the products life cycle.

You have guessed wrong.

[dammy]

We'll they didn't sell enough to keep a viable business going.

C=USA closed because of Barry's death and the family did not want to continue it.  Had Barry survived his cancer, you would be shocked to see what Barry had arranged after a specific law suit was finished (final judgement was Dec of 2013).

[dammy]

So tell us.  Barry's dead, the company liquidated, it does no harm to anyone to disclose what plans Barry had.

I was going to release stuff this past December, but someone else (who also knew Barry) might be attempting something so I'm going to hold my tongue on this subject awhile longer.  I don't think I should rock any boats right now.
