Sitting here thinking about this, and going back through the posts regarding the subject when they vehemently denied losing their offices, stating only that they have "relocated", I wonder if anyone will actually apologize to me for all the times I've been called a liar for bringing this stuff to the community's attention?

When they shut down the offices last year, I told you all this was happening.  I was called a liar...  That trend continues to this day with the Garry Hare incident...

It gets tiring being right all the time, but I'll be interested to hear the spin on this from McEwen himself at Amiwest.  I'm just not paying $35 to hear it.

Yeah, transitioning into the state of a virtual corporation with cell phones and working from home.

Try searching http://courts.wa.gov/

I assume the State of Washington and a few others want their pound of flesh.

Nothing there yet, but the day is still young.

Nope, just like they won't apologise for calling you a liar when you said OS4 was at least a few months off.

I expect the lies to continue from them.

Good, i hope this means those bastards are going bust once and for all, without scum like that maybe the Amiga can progress.

So the world may know.

Nothing to worry about! They're just becoming hardware independant!

With that said: If Amiga Inc. is going down (and auctions like these are custom in those cases at least here in Sweden), I feel truly sorry for everyone who's waiting for refunds, computers, AOS4 etc. :-(

You mean Amiga Inc didn't have offices?

But! But-but-but Mike Bouma told us all they DID!!! WTF?!?!? He threatened to call us all fudders on OSNews if we even questioned the possibility!

Oh, I am so shocked...

Really.

@Wayne

So far Ive found the following list of people that call ed you a liar over the allegation that their landlord kicked them out:

Mike Bouma
Luca Diana

Ill post the links if you want.

So what do we have so far, in the public domain:

#1 Court judgement against Amiga Inc from former employee.

#2 Court judgement against Amiga Inc from former landlord which is now resulting in a job lot sale. The fact that the equipment is still in there shows Amiga Inc was locked out and did not have a chance to hot-foot it out of there with their stuff.

Current unsolved mysteries:

#3 Garry Hare, is he the CEO or not?
   -- Bill Buck sayes he handed him a CEO biz card
   -- Wayne sayes he handed him a CEO biz card
   -- Ray Akey sayes he is not currently the CEO of Amiga Inc.
   -- Fleecy Moss sayes he is not currently the CEO of Amiga Inc.

#4 Is anyone getting paid at Amiga Inc?
  -- Ray Akey sayes he is.
  -- Lots of people are questioning it.

Impending court cases:

#5 Thendic vs Amiga Inc over shipping DE/Anywhere with their FatBoy device (?)

#6 Some other rumoured cases against Amiga Inc of which I have no details to hand.

Well thats 6 questions to put to Fleecy this week! Anyone got any more I can ask?

Thank god AOS4 is safe in all this. There is a point where rumours either become accepted truth or accepted falsehood. Which way will these go?

Regards,

Dave.
Hate figure. :lol:

Might want to check out some past threads on Moobunny and Ann.lu. There are no offices. Don't take my word for it, send them a pizza or call their landlord.
