Miles, I *WANT* your miggy. :-o
Anyways, back on topic...
Donny, are you out of your freaking mind???!???
Why on earth would I send a buck to a crap ass company that's all 'anti-piracy' blah blah that would F*ck the only people that give a sh!t about them??
Get a clue, bub. Every person that sent 50$ to Amiga Inc for that damned coupon got screwed in the worst possible way. They got ripped off on something they believed in.
Maybe you haven't been paying attention to what's been going on in the past few years, but AI hasn't been keeping Amiga alive.
AI boasted about a new Mobo in the beginning. That mobo was the Pegasos. AI and Thendic come alonf and have a falling out. No more Pegasos.
Eyetech help design a NEW board. One that doesn't have all the bells and whistles as the original, but no one really complains, 'cos Amiga said 'it's okay.' Does Eyetech get anything out of it? No. As a matter of fact, they had to design a PROTOTYPE before AI even took it into consideration.
New board is a go and is manufactured, in VERY small increments, funded solely by the people at Eyetech. At this point in time, it is assumed that AI was doing the coding, 'cos this was before TAO said in an interview that Intent was 'never designed to be a desktop platform.' These boards were sent with soldered cpu's, 'cos it was to expensive at the time to add a seat for expansion cpus. The new board starts as a massive flop.
Within a year, Eyetech offers NEW design boards. These are nicer than the ones before, but to recoup their OWN monetary loss, the boards are ridiculously expensive. At this point, not one cent has been sent from AI. All of their money is tied up in the 'Digital Environment'.
AI then says in an 'exectutive update' that Amiga's OS 4.0 including and upto all revisions to 5.0 will be coded by Hyperion. Why? Cos Hyperion has offered more to the amiga in the past years, with all of it's game ports, than any other company still writing software. It was outsourced once it became apparent that the 'DE' was DEad. To this day, I believe that Hyperion has STILL never received any compensation from AI. If they did, why on earth would Hyperion have to find OTHER ventures to make capital and have to take credit loans out to stay afloat just to keep OS4.0?
Eyetech (and to their credit, BPlan) created the Amiga One, not Amiga Inc.
Hyperion is coding OS4, not Amiga Inc.
There are over 180 video cards to be implemented in OS4.0. Hyperion did this, not Amiga Inc.
The only thing that Amiga Inc has done for this community is rip off people like Silver Dragon, Targhan and so many others.
Don't EVEN get me started on how Petro got screwed by AI. :-x
The only thing I would ever want to give Amiga Inc is a scortching case of herpes and since I have no access to that, they're SOL.
:-D
If you want to donate a buck, give to AROS. Thendic is a company. They 'have' money. AROS is coded by people who believed in the Amiga and want it to continue. They deserve your money. Hyperion does. Eyetech does.
The only thing the people at Amiga Inc deserve is a long prison sentence, 'cos last I checked, AI is a US company and 65,000$ taken from consumers with nothing to show for, but empty promises and lies, is known only as GRAND THEFT stateside.
