I suspect this is why all the C=USA "bare bones" systems all come with blu-ray drives built-in. This way they can claim it's a disk drive, as they don't have the license to produce a case.

Great legal loophole, lets call Lorianos case Amiga 500 Replica and ship it with slim DVD, so we declare it Amiga 500 replica DVD drive

(it`s a joke, its already X500 and with no stickers, but Loraino is great example of "I can, you can"

It says he was in a Pup-peroni (sp?) commercial. I would like to see it, I couldn't find it on Youtube though. I love dog food commercials, so much better than cat food commercials.


Might be this one

Its nice human and caring add on to the team, let alone humor.
Is it what they animals know of our wrongdoings or we could convert Moochie to be AmigaOS user :-)

It doesn't look anything like any Amiga case, it is a BBC Micro case more than A500 so that would be wrong IMO.

BigBentheAussie is Leo Nigro - CTO of Commodore USA.  Unsure how he does his job from across the world.

http://www.commodoreusa.net/CUSA_Corporate.aspx

they should get "Moochie" on this...sniff out if anything was actually stolen or misrepresented.  Or Moochie will bury his bones in the empty computer case.

I'll bet Moochie is the most ethical of the bunch  :cool:

at least he doesn't make stupid posts on message boards

Actually, it is us Blue Faithful who will be at a disadvantage.  You see, the human eye can go from red light to near complete darkness without the need to adjust for the lighting.  Blue light, however, depletes the chemicals in our retinas which are used to detect variances in lighting.

In the end, this becomes the classic "Red versus Blue" battle for our souls.
wasn't one pill for getting OUT of the Matrix and the other pill for staying in it??

I'm confused    :)

Franko over at amigaworld.net

"I was kinda hoping that no one would have made that public on the forums as I've been waiting since last September for "someone" to try and officially issue a Cease & Desist or warning not to use the Amiga trademark which became "dead" on the 19th of September 2011...

Oh well, the cats out of the bag now but I'm surprised Barry didn't want to pay the fees to re-register it as he knew the Trademark was dead as I had mentioned it to him)...

So now that everyone knows it's dead then I don't suppose you'll be receiving any legal correspondence from CUSA now {even they wouldn't be daft enough to try that, would they !!!)...

Been thinking about registering it myself since last year and basically licensing it for a fee of penny to people in the community to use for their projects (that way it would end all this BS by CUSA), perhaps it's time I did so as Barry obviously has no intentions of paying the fee...

I need to decide if it's worth the fees just to finally put an end to all this BS once and for all, what do you think... "


He should, then send a Cease & Desist letter from his attorney to CUSA. That would be Awesome!:banana::banana::banana:

Action speaks louder than words, I wouldn't take his words too seriously until he actions upon it.. I dunno I think he likes to talk a bit...  So until something happens wait with baited breath..

is Barry' s constant companion and closest advisor. At the age of 4 months, Moochie began his formal education at the International Canine Center for Clandestine Operations. The ICCCO is sanctioned and funded as a joint effort of the CIA, Homeland Security, Mossad, NCIS and MI5 in the UK.

After one year, Moochie completed his training and received his Security Level 5 Certification. His international accreditations includes terrorist and "Black Op's" interdictions, counter espionage infiltration and weapons/lethal force combat control. Moochie proudly served our country until his duty assignment successfully terminated in June, 2009 after having completed tours in the Middle East, Asia and Eastern Europe.


He is a special operative. Woder how Muchie served his country (Earth?) in East Europe :-)
