I think you are acting (or are you indeed acting?) very young and spoiled, gloating as you are about the demise of an amiga company and decent (I believe they are) human beings.
You mean decent human beings like "tire mechanics"...? Or don't they figure into the equation? If you will not pay people up to the date of termination, how decent are you, REALLY?
And really, nobody owes it to anyone else to support a poorly-run business like a charity just because they have put up a few posters of themselves in wheelchairs from time to time under the guise of Executive Updates or pleas for support through the rough times in a very expensive exclusive newsletter - a newsletter that closes off information in a community that is supposedly starved for actual information.
If anything sounds like gloating here, it is probably being heard by ears that have tuned themselves mainly to only a certain range of voices. Meanwhile, other people have recognized the spin coming out of the company orifices time and time again, and have no longer enjoyed the attendant sensation of feeling it coming up behind them. Through pain and frustration and exasperation perhaps these are the ones who have learned not to trust those issuances.
What you are hearing is NOT gloating: it is however the sound of people who have been wronged and mislead, and perhaps wish to be vindicated for the lumps they had to take when attempting to be frank about what they have seen and experienced.
But I realize also that some supporters of Amiga Inc hope they will get some stock options or something. Or they have programmed for DE (insert current name?) and wish to see some returns on that investment. Others believe it might impact OS4's future.
Others feel their friends matter more than someone else's friends. So if push comes to shove let someone else's friends be the ones to be victimized. Yes, there will continue to be justifications available to convince oneself that some people are nice and deserve to be paid, while others are NOT nice and deserve to be shafted.
But those justifications become less powerful as the evidence becomes more obtainable.
