1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

That's the main purpose with this whole thing you know ...
:-(  :-x

(BTW, this is quite funny in a tragic way. Still no news from Amiga Inc. But they make the "no news"  exclusive to that other site! (for the above reason) What's next? Selling some other exclusive "no news" to paying subscribers for 50 bucks? :-P).

I find it facinating, Fleecy, being Amiga's CTO, does not even know if his company has any rights to the Amiga technology.

Has he said whether he's talking for himself of for Amiga Inc yet?

Questions 1 and 3  :-)  those Q&A`s are just a complete joke which get worse week after week and i really wonder how anyone would even take Fleecy seriously.

Amiga Inc - So the world may know were amateurs


A bit harsh in my eyes. It's threads, FUDs, complaints & general bad mouthing like this & the bulk of this thread that have made AInc, Hyperion, Eyetech (& maybe even a couple of developers that are working away in the background for the future) chose the "it's best we don't say anything" option in the first place.
They're all right, nobody is happy when they speak, nobody is happy when they don't.

I boot up my Amiga roughly every day & head straight for news pages for what I want to see. I haven't yet. I still read but get on with things until the next time I check. No stressin, flamin, FUDin or whatever, because IT DOESN'T MATTER.

If a new Amiga never surfaces what will I do? Nothing.
If one does, what will I do? Buy one.

It really IS that simple. The ONLY people who will lose out are the companies above or the individuals that are DIRECTLY (Sorry for all this shoutin) funding &/or developing for these projects (A1, OS4, OS5 & any in betweens that may come) not us. Not the end users.

Don't get me wrong, I know this is a forum for Amiga talk & anything that may (or may not) be related but do me a favour please & stop going over the SAME ground. It's getting us nowhere. It's not changing what AInc & Co have to do BEFORE we see the end result is it? Oh, & it's very slightly beginning to grate on my nerves.

Thank you for your time, FuZion.

Is that a bad thing really?  I for one am quiet tired of the lies, the FUD, hyperspin coming from Amiga Inc which many of us call Amiga Inc on the carpet for doing so.  I rather not hear a damn thing from them until there is something real and concrete happening just prior to any announcement (ie product is out the door and then hype it).  Of course, that means a quiet tomb, but sounds of silence, IMO, is perferred over their FUD, lies, hyperspin of vapor products.

@Dammy

1) no one is forcing you to read the Q&A or even this thread about the Q&A.

point me to the lies in the Q&A pls.


2)sounds of silence leads to rumroms & you your self have taken part in the rumors.

So make up your mind what you want.

So the next round of of Amiga.inc are quiet they must of gone bust.

You will step in & say no no they are quite cos we the community told them to be.

The Q&A dont bother me either way.
I dont ask any questions in the Q&A as all i care for is the finished product like most do.

But i dont go on & on about it every day every time Amiga.inc speak.

As the guy above said the consistant moaning is getting boreing.

Thread after thread moan moan moan.

Weird. And I was just saying on another site that he answered that potential flame-bomb that is question 1 absolutely beautifully, and that it would take a very thin hide indeed to find any offence in his reply. Goes to show what a difference in attitude makes to interpretation of the same text.


Spot on, its all about your attitude towards amiga inc. If you have a chip on your shoulder about them then your will go out of your way to bitch about the smallest things and try to put a bad spin on it. I havent even read the questions yet, and im not a big fan of a-inc (i like hyperion thou) but im pretty sure that the whining is probably about something quite trivial as usual. Makes for a good read, and it reflects badly on the people doing it more than it does on a-inc ( i dont think they realise this) so it doesnt really bother me, its more like a bad tv sitcom these days.

well, I agree this isn't news anymore, but I did think it was news the first couple of weeks, just the shock value of some communication from AI.

You know, regular CAM's...& these Q&A's are a whole 5 weeks of an initiative without a change in direction.

WOW, what are they smoking?  It is a different Amiga, Inc....if they start producing results, including, as an absolute requirement.... all coupon owners and partypack ppl  getting their refunds as expected....then I will have to re-evaluate this operation.

LOL, I don't think thats going to happen though....what would they produce, OS 4???
And what is going to give them the money to meet their promises...sales of AmigaONE.....

well its a nice thought, lets hope...

What are they smoking indeed...that would be
a pretty damn good 'ask fleecy', actually.

Fortunately I think Hyperion will pull through
with a good product...I think they're a
decent group.

Actually if it was not Fleecy saying that about Wayne and it was
say Wayne saying this about Fleecy in a similar indirect reference
you would all be applauding him.

It was well said, although I have to say that I agree that after the first
time its newsworthy had diminished.

I also don't think I have learned much from the answers, if anything.

I wish we had product available so that at least we could argue about something, rather than nothing.

No-one is covering themselves with glory in the "Amiga" community anymore. How the mighty is fallen.
