Amiga Inc have always managed to escape without paying up and they seem to love the challenge. If you can get money of those {bleep}s i wish you the best of luck.

hmmm I guess, though amigathon still runs great on my box and a bought it while it was available (it still gets updates!) I don't think it illeagal!  I paid to run it, but I get your point.
I did not know of any ST clones but would be intereted.  I figure there are some emulators out there but uae is very good!  Also I still think there is a greate retro amiga scene out there.  Things get realy crazy every time Mr. McEwen attempsts to cash in on his funky internet company.

If I don't get more than just me, to sue, it's pointless, but I'm tired of those pathetic, sacks of sh!t. That "new" amiga is a {bleep}ing joke. I'd rather have the Amiga die, in it's pathetic existance now, than to be shredded and bled dry, by Big Mac.

This clearly shows KMOS and Hyperion contract (it also states Laws of California will govern the contract) so however the old contract read, Hyperion went on with a new one, with KMOS.

Yes, about being able to adapt OS4 for an arctic demo. I would like to see the original contract. Why isn't it included in the filing, it certainly is related to the case.

If there is anything in that old contract, I'm sure Ben will have his attorneys submit it with their counter claim.  They will be coughing up the monies for legal defense, won't they?
Genesi may have taught AI a new trick, those who can not afford an lawyer in Federal Court loses the case.

Because definitely there should a clause there preventing AInc from executing the buyback or in support of Hyperions case. Nobody in their right mind agrees to deliver an OS for 25K. Not including the original contract is a joke, I'm sure the court will have a good laugh at this ...

As I said in the other thread... I don't think you can sue the current Amiga Inc. because it's not the same as the old Amgia Inc. Don't forget we've had a shell game to clear Amiga Inc. of its legal obligations.

I noticed a distinct lack of dates on evidence relating to payments, etc.  These invoices do not look sensible and definitely do not look like any international funds transfer or bank cheque I've ever had drawn.  And what's with the scribble on that hurried fax?

I think I'm going to have to fold and ask to join the popcorn crowd...

Edit: And no signatures on one of the so-called agreements.  How can you submit, as evidence, an unsigned document?  Huh?  How?!
