Amiga Inc joins HP iPAQ Developer Program

[Ilwrath]

It sounds very much to me like how another company that we all know and loathe, erm, love always claims all these "partnerships" with companies who have no idea who the hell they are.

Well, it was big enough news to HP that it didn't even make the @HP internal intranet news section.  I know... I looked for it.  ;-)

There was a grand total of 3 documents on the entire intranet that did mention AmigaAnywhere, though.

(And, of course, these comments do not reflect on the thoughts or official positions of any entity other than myself.  I'm not a spokesman for any company that I may be employed by or a contractor for.  Blah blah, yakketty schmacketty.)

Wayne and Dammy are right.  This was a questionable approach 5 years ago.  It's even more questionable now.

Hare shows that he doesn't understand the Amiga by following the perceptions and advice of you-know-who.  OK, I'll mention them.  Bill & Fleecy.

Where are Joe Torre and Hedley Davis when we need them!?

It is an embarassment.  I don't fault anyone for covering this 'story' because this is an Amiga website, and that was an announcement on Amiga, Inc.'s website.

But, because we do discuss it, its not just an embarassment to Amiga, Inc. but an embarassment to us as well.

I won't try to pick it apart further, the points made already are perfectly valid....but I've almsot come to understand the Amiga fanboy position.  Over time it's become obvious we need Amiga, Inc. to succeed.  Without that, all we have left, is embarassing discussions like this, and ever distant memories of a bygone era.

On the other hand, who can be a fanboy of such a joke team, as Amiga, Inc.

What, newsworthy that my dad's ex-boss dropped me an IM going "You won't believe who just had their paperwork cross my screen!"
