I still think he wanted to say "a skeleton and rotting", but a half-eaten cheeseburger made it hard to understand  :-D
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

Alive is a bit pretentious, to say the least. But the really weirdest thing would be to see KMOS wish us a happy new year in a couple days. Been ages since we heard anything from them.

Guys?

I realize that a healthy dose of skepticism whereas announcements from Amiga Inc is concerned is fully warranted, but the only thing that has been accomplished by making such remarks here is to reinforce Amiga Inc's opinion to never speak publicly to this community.

The fact is that we don't know anything about what's going on at KMOS/Amiga Inc any more.  In my opinion;

1) We don't need to, because he have no inherent right to know anything.  Until they're ready to release ANYTHING, it's really none of our business.  With years of trashing Amiga Inc in the forums, we've lost any rights we might have ever had to be on "the inside".

2) If things are being done at Amiga Inc, them "shutting up and working" is probably the smartest thing they've ever done, even if it has allowed people (misguided by other companies) to gang up and trash them into obscurity.  This community has proven time and time again that our reactions and "myopic pedantism" to pick apart and twist every word spoken makes us unworthy of any trust whatsoever.

Invariably, someone will now start whining about "$50 scams".  Give it up.  We all know the history of {bleep} and things that have gone on, but the immature actions of the online Amiga community (at large) are 10 times more of an embarrassment to the memory of Jay Miner and the Amiga than anything McEwen and crew might have ever done.

In my opinion, when they release a product, they should reintroduce themselves to the community and make amends for the past.  Until then, as I said, silence is the best thing they ever could do.

Oh, and by the way, Merry Christmas.

Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!
