I highly doubt it.  They will probably claim that is the old Amiga Inc and has nothing to do with this shell game Amiga Inc cuz they paid a lot of money to dodge old debts. Of course, that type of statement would be the old Amiga Inc we all have come to love.   :roll:

Why not just ignore such news from Amiga Inc until they are interest of its community instead of making a news?

I don't tend to post here anymore - but this is worthy of comment.  I am more of a general browser in most cases and am tired of being involved in the community on the whole simply because we are ignored by Amiga Inc.

This site is just an update.  Amiga telling the corporate world that we are still here.  We, the "Amiga community" do not exist as far as the new A.Inc are concerned and IMO this improved site reflects that.

Although a number of the comments here seem to highlight a backlash towards A.Inc I am beginning to think they have decided to go the way of Sega and instead of concentrating on the hardware they would simply prefer the software route.  Deriving innovation from another' intelligence.

Not that this is a bad thing.  I just wish they would give/sell/volunteer the rights to OS4 to another party.

Fact is there is only one news item on there that is not more than 8 months out of date and the rest  of the news (which has had time to mature and develop) is irrelevant because the world has not been set on fire with new Amiga products nor a brand that others can rely upon.

Just my thoughts.

The new Amiga.com site looks very similar to these sites (especially the coloured tabs at the top - identical):

I would have deleted this news item had I seen it.  Its not worthy.

I browse for the most part also.  You're letting AI get to you.  Once you get over that hump and stop caring about what AI does then you're good to go.  Expect nothing when it comes to AI because thats what they'll deliver.  

Use the Amiga for fun, thats why we still exist.  Thats why AO is still here because users still love using the best computer from 1985 (ok, or 1990 when the best Amiga was released  :-P ).

No. No. Please don't mis-understand me.  I have moved on. Thats all. I always listen to whats going on in the Amiga world because I enjoyed my Amiga experience. I prefer to be on the outside looking in at the mo!

Amiga Inc. don't "get to me" - at all.  I know if anything is going to come from ANY Amiga company it will be Hyperion or indeed AROS.

But for now - I will watch with interest and the hope that I will one day see OS4 or AROS running on my desktop.

Cheers
