/me throws a bag of popcorn in the microwave...


Could you tell me where it's going, cos I haven't got the foggiest... :)

On a totally unrelated subject however I would just like to take this opportunity to say...

Chocolate spanners, mince 'n' tattie, worms with big bums and of course the obligatory Wibble... :)

Oi you get down off my ceiling...

Where did my dead dog go...

The fairies at the bottom of me garden are really, really fat & smelly and they're at least 200 feet tall sideways...

My meds are running out...

Help...

Too late beyond help now... :)

Yeah that may be true, but you are not the one footing the bill to keep the server up and running.  The owner of THIS board is the one that will have the legal issues if someone posts links to known piracy sites...  

It amazes me how everyone bitches about the facts and take it out on the moderators and board owners. The facts are that there are laws and if they are not followed someone will enforce them and quite often this will cause a lot of issues for folks that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the infraction.

For all you folks that disregard the courts and want to sponsor files and what-not that legally belong to someone else, by all means go ahead as Franko has and knock yourselves out.. But don't disregard the rules on this forum and cause issues for Amiga.org...

OMG! And who are you?! I am pretty sure Jim knows what I was aiming at, even if you obviously don't have a clue.  Sorry if that went over your head.
You should re-read your 2nd paragraph, and then re-read my post. Maybe it'll sink in....

Not sure why you are upset with my posting..  I guess I am clearly missing your point..  Genuinely sorry if I offended anyone, I just thought you were complaining about the debate and I was simply trying to clarify WHY the debate...  

No offense was intended...

Not to worry gazgood you did what you felt was right for your own reasons, I bear no ill will towards you. In fact events which basically stemmed from the various threads here over the past week have actually begun to prove very positive for my site and for my so called "crusade".

I knew perfectly well what I was doing and it succeeded perfectly as planned, now that things are underway behind the scenes I have very high hopes that my simple plan to try and put an end to all the crap that the Amiga community has had to put up with over all these years will hopefully sometime in the near future be laid to rest once and for all... :)

Just wish some more members of the community here would help to support this cause and not just leave up to folk like myself or those who don't even involve themselves in the forums but are still active Amiga users worldwide... :)


Commodore Amiga Iran will be hosting all legacy Kickstarts and installation media for Amiga OS versions from 1.x to 4.x on their website as free downloads as a gift to the community.

If there is any ROMs or indeed any Amiga software Commodore Amiga Iran requires then Commodore Scotland will be more than happy to supply it free of charge of course... ;)

(might even ask Mr George Galloway if he can deliver them personally on his next trip... :))

When does the Commodore Amiga Iran site go up?  I need some free downloads!  :)
 
You could use Commodore Amiga China also, they don't subscribe to our laws on copyrights and ignore them all the time.  :roflmao:

Well I was hoping to have my new site up and running today "AmigaUK.com" and thus allowing CommodoreScotland.com to get back to business as usual... :)

Unfortunately my old host of "AmigaUK.com" mucked up the transfer and so it's going to be a few more days before you can access your nice free downloads again... :(

We don't want to put up a "shop front" nor bullshi^H^H^H^H^H speculate about our future products unlike certain other companies that have similar names to ours.

Not long now though. :)

I think Franko is highlight here a very good question:

"Who does actually own AMIGA OS?"

I very much doubt that any of the parties claiming to own the OS can legally prove this.

The court case was not a judgment, it was a settlement.
According to Hyperion:
"the rights of Hyperion to the "AmigaOS" trademark are exclusive, nobody but Hyperion can release AmigaOS 5, 6 etc."

The name Amiga OS still exists on amiga.com, which shows that ownership is different than right to develop and distribute.

I can, but the documents are all written in Farsi.
