Genesi: Update regarding the change to the Pegasos-II

[Hammer]

Yes we all know. Why are you always repeating? Is
this the only advantage these boards have?

People follows “the name”…

[Paul_Gadd]

This clearly shows how far the blind Amiga followers  are willing to go to spread crap to try and destroy the rival.

@ AmiGR

As I imagined... YOU DID NOT ANSWER.

I did, I have told you the current status of Amiga Inc.

*WHY* didn't he show up in court when that employee sued him if he did have the money to pay him AND the money for
the lawyer?

I don't understand what that smiley should be good for. IMO the story is quite without dignity and involves much back-stabbing.

Some time ago, Amiga Inc was struggling and employees were told to be paid when proper funding arrived. The specific employee was asked to leave, but he wouldn't.

After a while Genesi comes into the picture, when confidential information regarding these internal problems comes to their knowledge and offers to fund a lawsuit against Amiga Inc for this employee. Due to the issues mentioned earlier, no proper defence was prepared and thus they lost by default.

Bill McEwen made various *very large* personal sacrifices to keep Amiga Inc going and afterwards managed to secure some additional funding.

Just like Jay Miner, Bill has done and still does everything he can to keep his Amiga dream alive and luckily they are currently in a better position today.

You really should stop useing the Blind word everytime disagree with someone over Amiga.Inc OR Genesi.

You come across as imature.

And not cos use used the Blind word but cos you use it so offten.

You need to moderate your comments to not have such a bad taste with repeat phrases every comment cos ppl just dont take you seriously.

Priceless,Blind,Worshipers,Followers.

Hmmm correcting me again, pathetic.

So what would you call people who think of Amiga inc as the best thing since sliced bread?

I did not correct you.

You better go read a dictionary to find the meaning.


But no one here is saying Amiga.inc is the best thing since sliced bread.

Not paying an employee and keep telling him that
you'll pay him IS backstabbing...

Some time ago, Amiga Inc was struggling and employees were told to be paid when proper funding arrived.

"Some time ago"...

The specific employee was asked to leave, but he wouldn't.
--

You cannot fire an employee if you owe him money.
It's illegal.

After a while Genesi comes into the picture, when confidential information regarding these internal problems comes to their knowledge and offers to fund a lawsuit against Amiga Inc for this employee.

Is that what McEwen told you? Heh... discrediting
Genesi even for your internal afairs... PATHETIC.

Due to the issues mentioned earlier, no proper defence was prepared and thus they lost by default.
--

No proper defence doesn't necesserily mean NOT
GO TO COURT AT ALL! Neither does it mean NOT
paying the employee AFTER losing the court:)

Bill McEwen made various *very large* personal sacrifices to keep Amiga Inc going and afterwards managed to secure some additional funding.

We shall see that.

Just like Jay Miner, Bill has done and still does everything he can to keep his Amiga dream alive and luckily they are currently in a better position today.

!!!! DO NOT PUT JM IN THE SAME LINE AS BILL MCEWEN !!!!

Jay Miner is the father of the Amiga, what did Bill do
about it? Ruin the name...

"Oh you want money? Better leave!"

Obviously not. Or was he also unprepared for the
second lawsuit?

And what about the current one? Also unprepared?

>luckily they are currently in a better position today

Very good. Then they can pay him now. Do you know
the expression "delaying insolvency"?

And do you know Mister McEwen personally? You may not share his vision for an Amiga future and maybe you don't think he is a good CEO, but he does do his absolute best to keep his Amiga dream going.

Jay Miner had to jump through several loop-holes himself to keep the original Amiga project alive. I have absolutely no trouble comparing the two. And I hope Bill will deliver as well.

@ AmiGR

Not paying an employee and keep telling him that

When there was no money, he could not be paid. It's quite simple actually.

You cannot fire an employee if you owe him money.

And as you know he wasn't fired, he was simply *asked* to leave for the good of the company.

Anyway AmiGR wanted me to fill in the more complete story. So, there you have it.

@skyraker

Woo.. After so much hard work you managed to get into my public web page and found a picture.. Gee.. You people are *SO* clever.  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D

Actually.. it's Richard M Stallman signing my Linux- T-shirt couple years ago. He was here couple years ago (summer 2001 I think) and was talking about GNU, copyrights etc.. Really interesting person even though I don't agree on all of his ideas.

And cause I by now assume you would not belive me even on this one.. I'll uploaded full picture there for you to see.. 800*600 (81k)  
HERE

And yes.. I have lost quite a lot weight since those days.  Go now and try to find picture of me and Jeff Minter (Mr LLamasoft), it's from this January  :-P  

@MikeP .. Well, I  have not met either of them and it's bit diifficult with Jay Miner nowdays due obvious reasons. And to be honest  McEwen ain't among my list of people I ever want to see.  Carl Sassenrath and -RJ- Mical are on that list though and I hope to see RJ sometime later this year.

@JoannaK

actually darlin' it took one google tot get that... even a MOS user could manage that...... anyway I never commented on your weight.... [ edit by skyraker]

i can't believe i got hoofed out of a MOS Irc chan for that post... you guys are soooo xenophobic....

That's not how professional companies work:)
