The question is why didn't Amiga Inc's investors (Prokom, Pentti Kouri/Invisible Hand, etc.) already replace him with someone who might at least create a tiny chance of making profits? If the investors would really invest in Amiga Inc. for making profits, they would have already fired him a long time ago and installed somebody else. But they didn't.
There must be reasons why they still keep him as a marionette.
Maybe they don't want to make profits with this vehicle, as it is not the only financial vehicle Mr. Kouri is involved in. But now you have Kent city officials involved in a deal, by extension Washington State reps and state senators. There are certainly questions I would ask if I were them before finalizing the complex. I think the bigger question is not why they want to keep their current "marionette" as you say but why this company warranted the investment from Prokom and how it intends to have the money for the city of Kent, yet still have very little in the way of tangible products. But again, maybe not making money is the design in the bigger picture with this one asset (Amiga Inc.)
My hope is if they are on the up and up and have wealthy benefactors who are just Amiga-heads themselves that they can power through this lawsuit quick and get product out. Or if things are not on the up and up with them that this Kent thing exposes that and then maybe that helps to release the chokehold that seems to exist on there being a consumer Amiga product for us.
