Amiga Inc note to dealers

[Markus_Bieler]

Clearly Amiga wants to know what actually happened to this stock and sue whoever stole it. I think Petro might be in trouble!

If the stock was really stolen, then why A-Inc didn't asked for the goods the time they realized the "crime"? I don't think they are after this stock. (It would be at least six years too late :-D )

A-Inc just needs some proves, that they made some money the last years with the brand AMIGA

They just forgot to save some documents before shuting down the German "Amiga International"

I think that they need more proves that they own the rights on OS3.1 and therefore also on OS 3.5/OS3.9 as these are based on kickstart 3.1

But without Bill telling us why he needs these documents we are only speculating about the reasons.

"This message is intended only for the addressees clearly indicated as intended recipients" sounds questionable to me whether this should be public.

Its not a hoax and it was meant to be confidential. How do I know? I emailed Bill McEwan.

I hope noone in the community will make the mistake to help this company! I do not know what they are planning, but it is not good...

PLEASE DO NOT HELP!!!

If they need proofs for their IPs, they should go to hell and ask the devil, but not us. :-D

Uh oh, the wrong one!

At the same time this part leads me to beleive they have little info about old distributorships and are hoping to reach as many parties as possible to recreate the database.

What it looks like to me is there is a question as to whether or not Petro really sold all those Amiga's or a question as to how much money he recieved versus reported. Stuff definately not recounted in Petro's book, I imagine.

Ah the book, another pipedream of vapour =).

DMA and USB work just fine on the A1XE with the $35 mod that is. Onboard sound works too has since software update three.  As for underclocking the CPU why would anybody want to do that?.
plus it runs and operates like an amiga not some other OS running UAE with WB3.1

Dang, you're right. That must be the problem.

So what could be gained by dredging up such an old debt, unless there is some one worth sueing. I'd doubt Petro would be the target. Mater of fact, why not just ask him?

Amiga Inc. probably has investors (or tax guys?) wondering what's up with some anomaly in the books. But, if there is a chance to get back something that was stolen, every corporation in the universe would jump at the chance because the bottom line is king.

Oh yawn...please go defend it to somebody else.  So you blew basically a thousand bucks for flaky hardware, had to turn around *immediately* to get it fixed, wait for...what, the third service pack before the onboard sound worked?

And yeah, underclocked CPUs.  Those who know what I"m talking about know what the deal is.

This is a joke, right??  :-o

I remember Bill McEwen at some Amiga show saying something like "we know who you are and we're coming to get you", but nothing happened. Maybe they didn't have proof back then, and now that they have the money they've decided to pursue the guilty parties?

WTF was that all about

IMHO there is no "guilt" to pursue here. And maybe McEwen should acknowledge the powers of courts and judges by honoring the court rulings against himself, before trying to use the same legal system he disrespect for a long shot (for it is a long shot) for a thing that happened 10 years ago?

I don't remember I heard about that, where can I read up on this.Is it on the Amiga History site ?

Try: ann.lu :-)

Nonsense, try "personal vendetta" if you want a reason.

Besides, you probably won't have to go as far as 10 years back in Amiga Inc's accounting books to see fishy things. :-P Question is *whether it would be possible* to go more than a few years back in "Amiga Inc"'s accounting, since the books probably got carefully buried (several times) along with amino/amiga/itech/kmos/whatever during the corporate shell-games they have been playing for years! :-P

But, if there is a chance to get back something that was stolen, every corporation in the universe would jump at the chance because the bottom line is king.

Nothing was stolen, that's McEwens words only, and please don't use the words of a liar and a thief to suggest a truth.

@Fransexy

According to the mail itself, it´s secret information and posting it here are illegal (unless you got permission from Amiga inc later)

Sorry, but that's nonsense. It may have been unethical at best...
