Why is this type of news on Amiga.org? DFX the owner of Amiga.org has an unreleased underground kult film exposing the dangers of Trans Fats.

Hahahahaha.

On my first read, I stopped at "unreleased", because I had spilled my coffee all over my keyboard (seriously, unreleased? I thought the "A" in "DFX" stands for "available now"?)

Thank god I read it a second time: "unreleased underground kult film"... Jesus Christ.

Wayne no longer had any interest in the Amiga and would have probably shut the site down if it had not been saved by DFX Partners.

That's simply not true (again): The amiga.org community would have bought it - the amount people were willing to donate to that task had already reached close to 5000 USD.

That's easy for you to say 4 years after the fact.

Actually, it's all neatly documented:

Talk is cheap, dollars are real.

Your claim was that a.org would have died if "Tedd" wouldn't have put money on the table. That's bullcrap, obviously - see above link.

It's dying now. A very slow and painfull death.

You are welcome to try and organize another Amiga.org buyout if it makes you comfortable

I already asked you for a price (twice, I think).

Not sure Karlos is still here, so maybe we'd have to search for a new maintainer. But first we need a price tag.
