@gary_c,

A agree with you on a few points, I think there was an initial rush of interest which has died down a fair bit, but it's certainly still there.

As you certainly know, the MS deal was announced a few months back, but things haven't gone as smoothly as they could have (understatment of the year), but things are starting to turn around, finally.

 We've got OS4 around the bend and real Amiga software in the stores. It's getting better- again.

Zoltan

@gary_c

I agree it does look bad when no content has been released in a while.  It's mainly due to forces beyond Amiga Inc's control.   I know several Amiga DE developers and they are making content -- some are doing so part-time.   Being a developer myself, for content targeted at Tao-Group's Intent, it does take time to create content that the user finds enjoyable.

The company I helped start is adding additional developers. I just added another developer this weekend.  

Intent is being developed and I have to say there are new goodies coming  (from Tao-Group) that will assist developers using it.

I can't speak for Amiga, but I do know they are making gaming/content tools.

Anyone else notice the manufacture is listed as microsoft? Not Amiga Inc. Not the best news, but a search of Microsoft and Games would get a hit eventually. Call me when a search of new computers list the Amiga OS5.x  ;-)

It's good to hear things are still moving along. I hope the developers working on games and apps find some success one way or another.
