Amigas in India?
« on: March 06, 2011, 07:15:47 PM »
I heard that after the Escom time Petro sold a lot Amigas to India for TV and video purposes. I wonder how big was the market there and how many Amigas were sold - probably not so much because I never heard of a software for our beloved computer which originates in India? Does anybody knows more?

"Think of my surprise when I learned that all of our inventory was sold for $75,000.00 to a company in India, when we were generating more than that on a monthly basis. This created a big operational hole for the company and caused us great harm in our ability to move forward. This hardware was not even put up for bid or auction, and nobody was consulted in the process."

Perhaps connected to the above. Dunno.
