Fleecy: Round 3

[asian1]

The 3rd round of Q&A. from Amiga Inc's Fleecy Moss has been posted.

[alx]

The only answer for all questions on 3rd round of "Q&A" is:
"Coming Soon!"

They're up now.  Besides, "Coming Soon!" could answer some of them... :-)

Why we even bother listening any more is a bit of a surprise to me.  Three years of "coming soon" makes it a "status quo" type issue.

I'm more surprised that any cares anymore.

Useless company with a massive user base of loyal fans, sad really.

"On schedule and rocking!"

Regardless of the quality of the questions and answers its nice to have a dialog going with amiga.inc after these years with silence. It has often been said that amiga.inc should behave a bit more like genesi and Bill Buck in public relations. If you compare statements from the two companies they are more or less alike. Fleecys statements strike me to be a bit more carefull but more proffesional than Bill Bucks

From the Interview:

Indeed, the first appearance of Amiga product in a mainstream computing channel has also witnessed our old friend, piracy, returning to the platform. Dean Brown, our hardware guru found three of the Gamecard packs in the Bellevue CompUSA and someone had cut one open with a scalpel and stolen the Gamecard!

I know it's not really funny, but it's good to see there's a demand for them.

What never ceases to amaze me is the cheap cynicism. One minute people are demanding a public forum to pose questions, the next they are dismissing the responses because they don't like them.

In many cases criticisms are warranted. But stop for a second and consider how much of a logistical nightmare it is to try to undertake a project of this scope in a market that is so soft.

I look forward to these weekly sessions and hope that they can remain a permanent fixture.

I agree, I look forward to them too. I guess I can't blame some people for getting worked up either. I just hope people give him credit when things start happening. I think Amiga been burned a few times, so they're carefull about what they say. It's a good read anyways.

I'll bite, just how much logistics does it take to call a OEM order x amount and then swap out the BIOS and add a boing ball sticker?

We don't as yet have a delivery date for the Club Amiga T-shirts but we are working hard on sorting the situation out. I can't go into the reasons why we have had such issues but the delay is as irritating for Amiga as it is for those who are waiting for them. Resolution of this situation is pretty close to the top of our agenda.

Now, was that also not said some time ago? Not that I care or something since I did not order such t-shirt. What's there to sort out? You got a design and you go to the company that can make them for you. That's all that needs to be done. It's really simple.

It's not that it is top priority or something but it would give the people the idea it can be resolved.

How about updating this "news" item now? The "coming
soon" is always there some days before fleecy's answers
arrives. And now they have. Wayne?

@slim

While I'll agree that it's not news, you are misreading it.  The "Fleecy Fluff Weekly" article contained nothing but "coming soon" responses, NOT that the article itself is coming soon.
