What is "Amiga Inc" AKA KMOS worth? Are they listed on any stock exchange?

This is a very, very good website, but it's too watered down for me.

AmigaWorld.Net was an excellent AmigaOS4.1 (and all other versions) website and should have stayed dedicated to AOS1.0-4.x but it didn't so I abandoned it, not as TakeMeHomeGrandma thought, I didn't get banned from there. (I was temporarily banned and then left after it was over.)

Amigans.Net is my favorite now.

I think that there are too many messageboards for the amount of Amiga users that there are and that losing AmigaWorld.Net the way we did was a terrible disaster.


Oh and, Amiga Inc. is just going to go bankrupt soon anyway (when it's proven in court that they don't own AOS4.x source code nor even "Amiga" copyright and trademarks long ago lost to Hyperion Ent.), so no point in offering them $10, when they expect a preposterous bid in excess of $50,000,000!!!!!!!

Now, HYPERION ENTERTAINMENT, OTOH hand in my opinion will be worth more than that in 5 years or so.

Not joking.


BTW, the stadium thing was probably the funniest thing A Inc. has done thus far, and they have a few more good ones left I would wager. You know, last year in court (May 31st) they had FOUR lawyers and an assistant there to battle Hyperion's legal representative. I was VERY amused at how they dismally failed. Weak (joke) case.

So I guess that A500, 600, 1000, 2000, CDTV, CD32, are pure garbage then? Thanks for posting here.

If it were possible, I'd like to try to have the rights bought and make sure that the company never fell to losers again. I was thinking of joining a secret society to try and make this happen. And then I could rule the world... muahahaha . Well, it was a nice thought anyway, I'll let you know how i go. :) :-D

I was thinking KMOS reminded me of Chaos from Get smart. An uncanny resemblance perhaps? :)

Amigaworld.net is oriented in AmigaOS 4 much more and there you can find really informative topics, unlike on Amiga.org where it is slammed and trashed by people who did not touch anything Amiga since years. That's why these days AmigaWorld.net is more preferred domain for me and seems not only me.


Let me show you the door then... :roll:

Sorry I dont get it. Is AROS and MorphOS bad things?

Do you know that they are in some ways connected to Amiga?

Why would someone interested in Amiga not be interested in news/discussions regarding those subjects?

EAB gets a vote for me. It is more light hearted than other Amiga sites.

Exactly I don't see the prob, It's all Amiga related :-)

As for the other best Amiga website I'd say Amibay :-D as it's a superb way to buy/sell and swap.
