Hyperion takes bat, swings for McBill's head!
« on: June 27, 2007, 09:39:05 PM »
New court filings are pretty stunning, really. Looks like Hyperion's legal team may be getting it's act together! At first I figured AI would have a home run, but after reading this I'm not so sure.

It's all there, all of the dirty laundry is there. This puts it all in legal documents and calls it fraud. The coupon scheme, the party pack scheme, the illegal corporate shell game, everything.

Boy is this getting down and dirty, Hyperion may pull an upset.

It's more fluff trying to cover up what AI has pointed out in Hyperion's failures.  End of the day, AI was not insolvent via Title 11 (they had Amiga IP which they can show they bought from Gateway2K for millions so they were still had capital, jut not liquid capital at that point in time) and according to another Federal Government entity (USPTO), Amiga DE owns the Amiga IP.  Then there is Hyperion accepting $25K from Itec for OS4 and failed to produce it would could be considered  wire or mail fraud.  Are we having fun yet?


I don't know about all that Dammy, Hyperion is suddenly making a good case IMO. According to Jens Shoenfeld Amiga Inc is completely unable to prove ownership of AmigaOS and thinks they are "crooks". I think the key piece here is Amiga Inc Deleware is not a legal entity. If you read the whole filing, it spells it out pretty well.

I love how one letter and an uncashed check takes Hyperions 25% chance of winning to 10% or less.  It was really clever, I'm not sure who came up with it, but he earned his money with that one move.


I'm suprised to see you have this view. Up to this point I figured AI had a slam dunk. I read this most recent document and thought things had shifted in Hyperion's favor.

INAL, just watching this freak show. No matter who wins we all lose. Its all just strangely fascinating, in a disturbing kind of way.
