Amiga Case Designer Faces Intimidation

[vox]

Actually having the dog on the board of directors is pretty Boss.

Seems Moochie is doing most of work and thinking, is only cute and non-violent being there. And so much lawyars, PRs, family ... and yet so little innovation and such campaigns. In public companies people get rotated or replaced. With private companies, it will be bossy until they declare to be out of bussiness, and LCCs are great for that because founders profit and other companies cannot be affected, just the ownership named at company - which is limited Amiga licence and probably rented Florida office.

So one day, PoooF as it came to existance, PoooF it will cease to exist.

And just silence and boycott is helpfull.

I suspect this is why all the C=USA "bare bones" systems all come with blu-ray drives built-in. This way they can claim it's a disk drive, as they don't have the license to produce a case.

Great legal loophole, lets call Lorianos case Amiga 500 Replica and ship it with slim DVD, so we declare it Amiga 500 replica DVD drive

(it`s a joke, its already X500 and with no stickers, but Loraino is great example of "I can, you can"

It says he was in a Pup-peroni (sp?) commercial. I would like to see it, I couldn't find it on Youtube though. I love dog food commercials, so much better than cat food commercials.

Might be this one

Its nice human and caring add on to the team, let alone humor.
Is it what they animals know of our wrongdoings or we could convert Moochie to be AmigaOS user :-)

I'll bet Moochie is the most ethical of the bunch  :cool:

at least he doesn't make stupid posts on message boards

is Barry' s constant companion and closest advisor. At the age of 4 months, Moochie began his formal education at the International Canine Center for Clandestine Operations. The ICCCO is sanctioned and funded as a joint effort of the CIA, Homeland Security, Mossad, NCIS and MI5 in the UK.

After one year, Moochie completed his training and received his Security Level 5 Certification. His international accreditations includes terrorist and "Black Op's" interdictions, counter espionage infiltration and weapons/lethal force combat control. Moochie proudly served our country until his duty assignment successfully terminated in June, 2009 after having completed tours in the Middle East, Asia and Eastern Europe.

He is a special operative. Woder how Muchie served his country (Earth?) in East Europe :-)

Well it seems to me that the community should be more respectful of the rightful owners of the amiga IP.

Amiga is a strong, cutting edge technology and brand but if anyone can steal the name and put it on anything then its rightful owners won't be able to make a living out of it, much less bring it back to its rightful position as market leader.

Hello, new user. Is good to have new people here.

Respect - many have tried to licence Amiga name for various project in the past, but very few, included contracted Hyperion, survived it and very few were licenced at all (AmigaOne name, AmigaOS and this "Amiga" Mini). So rightful owner doesn`t seem to try to make best use of it. That is why most of Amiga products of today does not bare Amiga name, or are labeled as AmigaOne and yes, AmigaOS.

Cutting edge technology was only 1985 and brand is forgotten beside such island as this community.

When speaking out of anyone using the name, putting it on everything, examples are Amiga Inc shop, iCoin line of products and CUSA Amiga series. That doesn`t bring any of original values or OS continuation, no matter how much names and adverts suggest it, neither is visionary, innovative or practically different and nor for the massess for today market.

Well, surely people wouldn't go to so much trouble and money to purchase one of the few machines capable of running modern versions of amigaos 4.x or morphos if it was just some obsolete, worthless thing, right?

Surely all MOS / OS4 users have been through a lot of trouble and investment, you are right about that.

But, its not "obsolete, worthless thing" but most modern editions of AmigaOS`s.

Surely just easy web shopping with credit card is not enough to get people buying fake Amigas for twice price of same x86 system.

They are way more powerful then AmigaOS.
Reason why it isnt developed as Linux are gaps in development from OS 3.5 to OS 3.9, OS 3.9 to OS 4.0 final and during process with Amiga Inc. One or two releases and OS alone will be quite modern (same goes for MorphOS and AROS)

True Amiga isnt just some (in)valuable everyday commodity with sticker over it trying to increase value.

Even X1000 and SAMs (Minimig, Natami, FPGA Arcade, Pegasos, Efika ...) are also motherboards, they are quite unique as similar are rarely available today.

True Amiga is in user controlled experience over computer (=OS), and was over hardware at chipset time. Experienced user in charge of fully customizable responsive OS. It would stand for optimized software that should take best out of hardware.
