Congratulations Genesi.  And it's not a sad day for the Amiga, it's a sad day for Amiga Inc (two very different things).  They've done so much damage to the Amiga you could almost cry.  Hopefully this is the beginning of the end for them - the Amiga will be stronger for it.

lempkee, I've told you once in the last 24 hours, now give it a rest.

If you have a serious complaint about the moderation on AO, talk to an AO staff member privately over p/e-mail.  Otherwise don't be a pain or go elsewhere please.

The lawsuit was about AmigaDE for MorphOS and being able to use the Amiga trademark.

AmigaOS4 and the AmigaOne don't have anything to do with it.

(my opinion) this is a great day! a milestone has been reached! i hope now Genesi will sue Amiga inc and get the money they used on this lawsuit back! hoppefully this will bankrupt Amiga inc and someone else can buy the trademark (dont care who acctualy as long as they do some good with it wich is more then what i can say the current owners have).

Arg! This certainly doesn't make me too fond of Genesi's methods. What are they trying to accomplish? Surely a buyout would be a better option given their motives.

Oh well. Maybe we'll see OS4 on Pegasos and MorphOS on AmigaOne now...

And they have to mean DE, yes? Hyperion's in charge of the OS source code now, aren't they? I don't really see why Genesi need it anyway, since 68K Amiga apps are already running on MorphOS.
