BBRV responds to Amiga-vs-Hyperion

We think that Amiga is really trying to use AmigaOS as the base for a Smartphone/Mobile Device Virtual Machine that runs across multiple platforms, with a primary focus on Microsoft devices (why else would you buy one of the primary vendors of decent Windows CE software out there, with a track record of delivering software that made CE extremely functional with low memory). The good news is even if we developed an ARM-based EFIKA our License Agreement would still be good. Isn't that right, Mr. the Judge? Stay tuned...

Ooooooooo, Three way lawsuit.
Definitely going to need Theater Style Butter Popcorn by the palatte.

Watch Amiga, Inc. say that the licence contract with Genesi is void as it was with the original Amiga, Inc. Which would have interesting repercussions on the Hyperion case. The entertainment value of all of this could go through the roof if BBRV is not just playing to the audience, as usual.

Wow!  The account still works.

@Argo - playing the audience?  Would that be like the last law suit?  Or, maybe that would be like shipping the Pegasos/ODW or many more of the EFIKA?  What is it? Could you be more specific?

Thanks!

R&B :-)

It is worth noting that BBRV are still SELLING and PRODUCING in numbers the only PPC hardware available that could run OS4.  

If people stopped suing each other and put their energies into marketing an existing hardware and software solution where everyone gets to benefit from revenues of hardware and software sales then we all would have been running OS4 months ago.
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.

ARM based EFIKA would be *very* sweet.

I'm very happy with my Genesi Pegasos G4 running MorphOS and many OS4 applications thanks to the MOS AOS4 emulator! :-D Very pleased indeed and it didn't take 7+ years to arrive, it was reasonably priced (even when it was released) and there were no lawsuits involved. Poor Amiga Inc. fans :) But you have to LOL really.

I know that thats blatent trolling here, but I have to admit that this whole mess does make MorphOS & Aros seem way more attractive.

Bill just stay away from the Amiga scene, seriously and i don't mean that in a nasty way. You actually deliver products and run a proper business, in amigaland that is unacceptable.

Just a friendly moderator reminder to keep it civil.  The first sign of real trolling or flame wars and I will lock the thread (or delete it).

This is the first and only warning.

Resume conversation...  :-D
