Your link seems to be for Amiga, Inc Delaware (DE).

However, date of incorporation 04/20/2007 ?!?

Different company, this is the "new" owners of the IP.  A shell game to protect themselves from the lawsuit by Hyperion is my guess.

Amino?!?  That's not even a catchy name, what's going on?

The first thing that strikes me is amino acids, the building blocks in proteins.

Dunno if that's a positive association, though.

It was their legal name before they bought the rights to the Amiga IP.  If they sell off or get rid of that right, they would be forced to change their name back.
