Yeah I was a mod once before and I walked away from it while i ran Anachronism, for (my) fear of a conflict of interest. That company is gone and I am back for what stared as a temporary thing but seems to have become permenant.

Red is as old as time itself... if you look carefully... he registered a whole month before me... after the great A.org reboot of 2002... anyone remember that?

Nope. I thought it was awesome. :-) Then again, I kinda jumped off the boat. I'm tired of this crap and I needed to flame. I apologize for losing my cool. I never meant to disrespect you or Amiga.org.

*Edit*
BTW, how's the book going? :-)

2008, Mate. Image Comics will be printing it. It looks as though they'll be printing our Alice in Wonderland Graphic Novel, as well, with a release date of Q4 2007. :-)

Hehe... that's a possibility as well. I was thinking about either Pamela Andersson or Erika Eleniak as Amiga Inc's Soft-to-Hardware development team.

I was still a mere lurkist at the time. I do recall the greater and lesser avataricides of 2003 though...

Had to do it that way, after all the Belgian dwarf was one of three people going to kick my a?? if I showed up at Amiwest in 2003.  Strangly enough not one of the three actually asked me to go outside and see how far I could bounce them.   I used to take charges from the Round Mound of Rebound, I'm afraid Benji and the others were a little too small to scare me.

Which is exactly why I want to start a class action suit against Amiga, Inc, for the coupon scam. They stated the coupon was for AmigaOne/OS4.0 Early Bird Bundles. Eyetech's boards, in AI's own words, are not AmigaOnes, thereby Amiga Inc committed both theft and fraud, by taking people's money *YEARS* ago.  ;-)

How could they take money for a product, originally intended to be created by a company that went bankrupt *BEFORE* the coupon fiasco and without a working product? :rtfm:

I'm so poor right now, maybe I can get Legal Aid to start a class action suite here in Maryland?

If you want to sue over the coupons, great, I've told people about that for years.  But your off base on the Paragraph 22 issue and the AmigaOnes.   Nowhere is Eyetech mentioned here, this is all about Acube and this comment in the press release (which is included as Exhibit I).  In it they say the following:

"Within the framework of the partnership Acube will act as a worldwide distributer of Hyperion's Amiga OS 4.0 operating system for a range of PPC hardware platforms including AmigaOne(MicroA1, XE/SE) and classic Amiga."

So Acube is going to be distributer for OS 4.0 (which Hyperion doesnt have the right to make them), they are going to distribute OS 4.0 of AmigaOne (which by definition already have OS 4.0,, so either they are going to repackage it and make more money (not allowed) or Acube is going to freely distribute final CDs, which do you think is going to happen?), classic amigas (which they had the right to do until the license was cancelled) and other PPC hardware platforms (which we know means SAM and Moana) which they arent allowed to do.  The issue is that only Teron boards sold by Eyetech which included a license for 4.0 (and so Amiga got a royalty on them) are AmigaOnes.   I made the comment the other day, that with Acube working on processor boards for the Terons I was wondering if they had found a bunch of board sans processors and were doing this to sell a bunch of old Terons at new high prices, AI is afraid of this as well, thats all that this is about.
