Genesi Won Lawsuit against Amiga Inc.
« on: February 20, 2004, 05:02:21 PM »
News reached us that Genesi won the amiga lawsuit, although it has not been confirmed yet by either party.



We will keep you posted.

Taken from Morpos-news.de

"Genesi announced this morning that the US Federal Court in Washington State had found in favor of its request for judgment against Amiga Inc. The Court's decision grants full relief to Genesi, including source code access to the licensed Amiga operating system and the full use of the Amiga trademarks.

Whether or not Genesi incorporates any of these features long term into MorphOS or any other of it strategic plans will now be the subject of investigation. Genesi will have full descretion to execute the license agreement unilaterally and is now free to pursue damages against Amiga Inc.

It seems to be real this time ... it has been confirmed .. just not official/public.

I wouldn't have posted it if I believed it was crap again.

I wonder what this will mean ... for Amiga and for Genesi.
