Was the poll still running, or are we done with that? I've noticed it missing from the front page since yesterday.

@Plaz

The poll was terminated earlier than originally planned I think, maybe because of Amiga Inc. announcement.
I wonder if we can already proceed with the questions now...

Hmmm.... The 20-Q offer and the announment were made roughly the same time. So does this mean and automatic Yes or No to the session? If some one's said already, I missed it.

Let's wait an see what next week brings. There is suppost to be another announcement about the new hardware by then. No doubt leading to many questions, even if said announcement does not materialize.

Rather no website than a non-updated one that is just flannel, or worse 'under construction' !


That is so dodgy! It's a crappy photo of an old camera with some lame photoshoping thrown in. The whole site itself looks like it was thrown together using Micro$hit Frontpage :lol:

I am gay, and the site doesn't look very gay to me. It would have a lot more design style and updated technology..Again not gay, our community has a lot more going for it than that..

How can you expect them to develop and build a new platform if they can't even afford a decent web presence?

I think lets just wait and see . I know some guys that have been around for a while will never have any faith in Amiga Inc  , but really if this does turn to muck then it may mean the end of Amiga Inc . If it does work then who knows what will happen in the future ?  Right now there isnt much we can do but speculate and wait .

Personally, I don't give a hoot, for me, Amiga died long ago and I have no interest in these "new Amigas". I'm just tired of A.inc screwing the community members who really do want to see a "new Amiga".

I would not say he has not come through on any of the answers. The web site was redone.

I really hope that there is a renewed interest.

Let's move forward with 20 questions. Let's create a good solid list. Some of you may not like Amiga or see their importance, but they do have the intellectual rights and that alone, makes them a player.

I am interested to hear what Mr. McEwen has to say.

My questions:
Intel had announced Geneseo project and AMD had announced Torrenza project. Both project enable non x86 Co-processor with ordinary  Intel/AMD boards. There is a plan by IBM to release Power series CPU for torrenza. Celoxica had similar plan with Xilinx Virtex (PowerPC 405). Is it possible for Amiga Inc / hardware partner to release AmigaOS 4 related Co-processor board for PC?

I'm curious to know if they have a plan to negotiate with the OS4 contractors, and if there is a plan to fill in any gaps if certain contractors for whatever reason choose to withhold their particlar pieces of OS4 if Amiga Inc. should win their lawsuit.

Does terminating contracts between Amiga Inc. and Hyperion affect the agreements Hyperion had with the OS4 contractors? ie. are the contractor agreements invalidated as a result of terminating contracts with Hyperion/Amiga?

So has the Q&A officially been canceled now?
