I see a lot of users sending concerns and complaints, but I could not find the part where Amiga Inc. had been "thrown our of Kent center".

Can you show me where the final determination to turn down Amiga Inc. proposal to purchase the naming rights is located?
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

The issue here is about the center itself, not about its potential name.  

The very questionable issue about Amiga having 10 mil to spend for naming rights is a different issue.

So, did I get that right or am I lost here?  I only spent 1 minute on the whole thing so, I might be wrong...

C'mon, somebody give me an award or slap me!!!

@c64_d0c

This comment seems to be pulled from an earlier article in April, not the meeting scheduled for May 23rd.

Following the hearing, the examiner will have 10 days in which to proffer a recommendation to the Kent City Council about whether the city should move forward on the center or not.

This says it will be many days before we know about any decissions made based on today's (May 23rd's) hearing. Also from what I read this hearing is about the Kent Center as a whole project, not specifically about Amiga's involvement. Though I'm sure the Amiga subject will come up.

I can't find any comment about Amiga being thrown out. Do you have a link or is that just wishful thinking? Based on the local time and the announced meeting time, the hearing should have been over a couple of hours ago. Any one see a link to details of today's hearing yet?

There's nothing in there that states that Amiga is being ousted, it all has to do with wether the center will be built or not.  Lets get facts straight here.

What would be even more fun, take your whole amiga collection down to the Amiga Center and have your picture taken with them.     :crazy:
It would be fun to see all of them in one place.

But, you would probably get arrested for littering.   :insane:
