Reminds me of the time a mate of mine faxed an offer to Sony after they declared a major loss.
He wanted to take the company over for $1, and would assume all debt. Funny, he didn't hear back from them.
The Australian term for this sort of thing is "taking the piss", not sure what you yanks would call it.....
But if Amiga Inc don't want to sell, I've got a few acres on Io that Bill might be interested in....
