Amiga Inc/Hyperion and Eyetech booth at Amiwest
« on: July 16, 2003, 06:00:30 PM »
Where are the great Amiga companies at Amiwest? This being the most major US show in years, The consortium of Eyetech, Ainc, and Hyperion have no booth or speakers at Amiwest! The sad thing is there are NO Amiga inc reps in the banquet panel. That is really a poor showing - but nothing new for Amiga inc. I was dissapointed with Amiga inc since Bill and Fleecy took over in regards to Amiga shows. They never even had a booth! They wouldnt even break down and spend $500 on a nice booth to show their support of the Amiga community. I'm sure its the same with Amiwest - no booth. I'll be suprised if Bill M shows up at all. What about Hyperion? They REALLY should be there showing OS4 - or Eyetech for that matter. At least Eyetech has exhibited at previous Amiga shows. Neither of these companies will have a presence there and its doubtful so called Amiga inc will. Genesi is coming from France with a staff and machines running the new MorphOS and the Superbundle. They will also debut the G4 (which is faster than the A1 btw) What will Ainc be doing? If Jens S from Individual computers can show where are these people? The Amiga community are tired of promises and  excuses we want companies that deliver, and Genesi delivers! I'd like to hear from these companies that blast Genesi and bbrv all the time to justify why they arent going to be there. Lets also get the truth out about OS4 development and timelines as well.

I think its pretty sad, but i'm sure (or at least i'm hoping) that show attendance from Eyetech and Hyperion will increase after the release of OS4.

Hi,

There should at least somebody there to represent Amiga. No discussion about that. There are enough Amiga fans out there we will give Bill a lift.

Maybe BBRV could publically offer to pay for Fleecy to fly over from the UK, to show there are 'No hard feelings'! :lol:

Probably only reason why AmigaINC announced that CEO of amigaINC "bill mcewen" would be there, was because of the rumours of a new CEO...

Somehow I got the feeling that BBRV will offer it now since you talked about it. Yeah Bill would be that crazy.

Or get Bill there too. Well Bill seems to becoming our own Waldo. Have not seen him around in ages.

Where's Wally? :-)

However, I somewhat doubt that this thread was really necessary.

Not that sweet innocent me would ever say it so BBRV would, knowing full well Fleecy would decline the offer! ;-)
