Forgive me if I no longer believe a single word coming from this side.

Grrr.

Bl00dy Websense blocks it here at work. AW.net recently must have added 'games' to their metadata or something.

Oh well, will have to wait until I get in (after I've blown the froth off of a couple ;~)

Not having seen it, I obviously cannot comment on content, but at least it was speedy.

Interesting read, but I have serious issues with the business card answer :lol:

Does this work?

@KennyR

Which 'side' are you referring to and why?  Just curious.

Good interview.  Well done.  Interesting but relieving to hear the business card explanation.  

I have no qualms at believing this, as it's exactly what I've thought (and said) for quite a while...  While he was not with CEO of Amiga Inc, he at least for one show, represented himself to others as the CEO of Amiga Inc. (at least on cardstock).

In was inarguable to me that the card I held in my hand was "real" (as opposed to a Photoshop creation), but he did a great job of explaining it and I think this -- along with the entire interview -- will go a long way towards repairing the rift in the current Amiga community.

Now, it worries me that he is doing AmigaOS for "one customer" (is that Amiga Inc, Hyperion, or Eyetech) as opposed to the mass market, but after years of putting up with this community, I think you guys have just made me paranoid as hell..  

Thanks Garry.  Best of luck.

It still bothers me that people who should know better are still mealy-mouthing the issue after calling you a liar.

@rassilon

Managed to circumvent it.

A plan so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel*
Copied the link into the google translation service and translated it into german.
Luckily, it only translated up to 1.10 and left the rest intact.
So... Cut questions 1 thru 10 out and translated it back on the text box.

It's ok, but has mangled parts of it.

WTF rueckgespraech means I really don't know ;-P

I have not so far been able to read the interview, cos its blocked here at work.

But I am happy to admit I was wrong on the Business card issue.

Its quite amazing as the scans DID look like photoshop mods. Its getting so you can't even trust your eyes these days!!!  :-D

@T_Bone.

There will always be "those" who don't understand or accept that which doesn't fall into their narrow-minded views.  Some times, each of us is one of "those".  I'm just hoping with the official explanation that we can finally close that chapter in this soap opera and move onto another story line.

The writing on this soap opera is rivalling Days of Our Lives, and I should know.  Having this time on my hands has made me an addict.

So, the business card palava was Bill Buck's fault?

Why do I have absolutely no problem believing that? :-D

@Martyn

Heh, thanks, but I sorta got there in the end. I see you went down the Italian route. Seems to have give a cleaner result than mine.

Printing it now (17 pages) for the journey home.

Cheers
